What is Compartmentalization (information security)?

Compartmentalization is a security principle that restricts access to information based on user roles and privileges. It minimizes security risks by ensuring that sensitive data is only accessible to authorized individuals.

Cybersecurity
Cybersecurity encompasses strategies, technologies, and practices designed to protect networks, systems, and data from cyber threats. It involves encryption, authentication, and intrusion detection to mitigate security risks.
Local differential privacy
Local differential privacy is a privacy-preserving technique that adds noise to individual data before it is shared or analyzed, ensuring anonymity without relying on centralized data aggregation. It is commonly used in privacy-focused analytics by companies like Apple and Google to collect user data while minimizing exposure risks.
EPrivacy Regulation
The EPrivacy Regulation is a proposed update to the EPrivacy Directive, aiming to strengthen online privacy protections and align with GDPR. It covers topics such as cookie consent, electronic marketing, metadata privacy, and secure communication, ensuring stricter compliance in the digital landscape.
