# Q&A: What It Takes to Tackle Data Privacy in the Big Data Era

With Data Privacy Day upon us, professor and cybersecurity veteran Christian Espinosa speaks about the data security landscape and what the future might hold.

Efforts around Big Data analytics, personalization and more seek to use customer data to direct changes in operations and optimize the customer experience.
