“According to a recent survey by FormAssembly, maintaining data privacy is important for organizations, yet not all of them have the resources to do so. In fact, 81 percent of respondents said that they are ‘extremely’ or ‘very’ dedicated to making sure their customer data remains private and even have the personnel to prove it. However, only 43 percent of organizations—less than half—said that they have one or more staff members dedicated to privacy-focused roles. These numbers show that although organizations care about data privacy, they may not have the means to do so.”
