Abstract

Privacy consists of two components: (1) conforming one's collection, use, and sharing of personal data to existing laws and norms, and (2) securing the data against unauthorized access and use. Even with the best of intentions as to the treatment of personal data, there can be no privacy where there is no data security. With the interconnected Internet, cybersecurity is a critical component of privacy.
