Privacy/Big Data

Introduction

In 2020, various factors such as the activation of O2O services due to COVID-19, advancements in AI and IoT technologies, the implementation of digital New Deal policies, and the revision of data-related laws led to significant growth in the data industry. With the increasing value of data itself and the diversification of its utilization methods, customers are deeply contemplating how to create value by utilizing data scattered throughout various sources. Even customers who were previously indifferent to data are now considering building compliance for data processing and management.
