Summary
After reading this chapter, you should have a better understanding of data security, data privacy, and data ethics. We’ve discussed the various topics from a more pragmatic standpoint.
We took the three topics and created tables with questions that you can use when you are about to begin a data and analytics project. It is prudent to address and answer these types of questions because incorrectly applied outcomes can cause harm to individuals.
Additionally, we included some real-life stories that were published online by newspapers or other news sites to help you understand what can go wrong when you use data incorrectly.
As we need to act on the created insights (see Chapter 7, Designing Dashboards and Reports), we will help you understand how to turn insights into decisions. We will do so in the following chapter. We will cover a seven-step framework to help you to turn insights into decisions.
