Now that the wall between privacy and security is crumbling brick by brick, it is essential for both sides of the divide to meet in the middle and work toward the same goals. Of course, striking a balance between the two requires cross-pollination, but this merging of functions can’t succeed unless there is top-down, bottom-up buy-in and the cultivation of a culture where both notions are ever-present and inseparable in the minds of all throughout the enterprise. The time has come to make privacy and security personal and shift the company’s mindset away from lonely and legalistic policies and procedures.
