Information security is the study and practice of protecting information. It’s important because information is valuable. Organizations need data to conduct business. Governments need information to protect their citizens. Individuals need information to interact with businesses and government agencies. They also stay in touch with friends and family over the Web. Information is a critical resource that must be protected.

Privacy is a right that people no longer are taking for granted. People want to have control over their personal information. They want to be able to choose how third parties collect, use, and store their information. The growth in electronic communication and data transfer has changed how individuals view privacy and how organizations must protect it. Organizations must use information security principles to make sure they respect a person’s individual privacy choices.
