Data Protection as a Business Enabler

Speaker

Marlena Y. Herrera, MB

Description

Data protection can be leveraged to increase revenue and reduce costs, transforming it from a cost center to a profit center. By utilizing risk mitigation savings, operational efficiency, competitive advantage, compliance, market and revenue generation, and enhanced brand trust, organizations can drive financial benefits. By embracing data protection, companies can open up new opportunities for growth, while protecting their most valuable asset: their data. By reducing risk, improving efficiency, and enhancing trust, businesses can see tangible financial benefits, making data protection a powerful business enabler. October’s ISSA luncheon will discuss how we can implement these strategies in organizations across all industries.
