Episode 78 — Understanding PII, GDPR, and Privacy Regulations
In this episode, we discuss privacy and compliance topics that are critical for the CompTIA IT Fundamentals (ITF+) certification exam. You’ll learn what constitutes personally identifiable information (PII), why it must be protected, and how regulations like the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) set legal requirements for handling personal data.
We’ll cover examples of PII, from names and addresses to biometric data, and explain how misuse can lead to severe legal and reputational consequences. Knowing how to identify and protect sensitive information is a skill that will help you answer exam questions and work responsibly in any IT environment. Produced by BareMetalCyber.com.
