At Whyze Health, Cyber and Data Privacy is highly regarded. This awareness focuses on “privacy” and “security” at every interaction with new business, new products, Technology, legal policies and regulations. These 2 words are often used in tandem, but they’re really two distinct concepts that frequently overlap, especially regarding sensitive data at Whyze Health. We regard them together in everything we do.
So, what’s the real difference between privacy and security at Whyze Health?
Privacy
At Whyze Health, privacy means control, ethics, and transparency around data. Whenever Whyze Health has information about customers, colleagues, and businesses, privacy comes into high consideration.
Security
While privacy influences how Whyze Health collects, uses, and shares data, security covers how we protect data. Whyze Security is comprised of cybersecurity, protection against online attacks and any risk to protection of Data.
The Whyze Health data protection strategy uses components of both Privacy and Security.
At Whyze Health, it is key that the entire company is educated on why these matters and what they can do to understand them better.
