Data security refers to securing the data of a company by using multiple technologies and techniques. It is important for companies to have data security to prevent unauthorized access, intentional loss of sensitive data and accidental loss or corruption of sensitive data. The techniques used in data security include multi-factor authentication, multiple layers of access control at the network, the detection and isolation of unauthorized devices immediately on attachment to a network. Disaster recovery plans and taking regular backups are also a part of data security as well as the risk management process of the companies.
Data privacy speaks about technical details on how to implement data security and who will have authorized access to sensitive data. The most important concern of data privacy is the application of policies and procedures that govern the collection, storage and use of Personally Identifiable Information (PII)* and proprietary corporate information, such as trade secrets, personnel, and internal processes.

It also spells out how to avert improper data exposure and how to deal with the situations of policy issues and policy breaches.
