Unlock Privacy ROI: Why Making Cross-Functional Allies is Key
Though the data privacy function is relatively new, it faces an old challenge: How can privacy prove its value to the business and be seen as more than "just" a cost center?
Cost centers tend to get the bare minimum in terms of resourcing and influence. But privacy needs more than the minimum if it's to be effective in protecting the business, protecting consumers and generating value.
The good news? Other functions have faced this challenge before.
By aligning with allies in security, IT, and governance, risk and compliance, privacy professionals can do more with less; embed robust privacy practices throughout the organization; and demonstrate real, tangible value to the business.

How to approach stakeholders in security, IT, and GRC functions and build partnerships.
How your collaboration equals more than the sum of its parts and generates return on investment.
