The Ultimate Guide on Cybersecurity + Data Science: two books in one

Summary

Innovation influences the market and its operators, especially about competition conditions. One of the most significant technological advances relates to the possibility of capturing a huge amount of information and processing them rapidly: two of the main features that make up the phenomenon known as big data. This not only entails the emergence of specialized operators in these activities, but also makes a "data economy" possible. These large data sets are becoming a core asset in the economy, fostering new industries, processes and products and creating significant competitive advantages. A new ecosystem is being built around the data economy: data analyst and data scientist are the most rewarding careers in 2020. With data science and predictive analytics, in particular, you can predict useful metrics and trends for your business. Such an approach can help you improve your ability to serve your customers or otherwise compete in the market. The importance of data science and predictive analytics, for example in the finance industry, is in the fact that organizations can leverage the power of technology to detect what can negatively impact businesses before these issues happen or spread. Software such as R, the blockchain, cryptography, human computation, cybersecurity and machine learning are the hottest topics and the new source of success! Get to know more about new technologies and learn how to exploit the value of data.

Intellectual Property and Competition Law

Summary

The book wants to provide an analytical review of the implications of data in many different contexts. As a matter of fact, data is correlated to the legal, economic, and personal contexts. Furthermore, the report presents the different perspectives concerning the usage of data and their impacts on the agents involved: data subject, data collector, and data processor.  This in depth analysis shows the importance of coordination among consumers, firms and policy makers. Data is considered as real inputs in the production function of a firm because they are a useful resource since they enable the creation of knowledge for companies, they facilitate the “learning-by doing process” while learning about the tastes and preferences of the customers to tailor their offers towards them. On the other hand, consumers should accept to provide certain data to ease this process because it can favor both them and the market.  The role of policymakers is very important because it is the one controlling and taking care of balancing trade-offs across the many competing objectives trying to detect a limit between the storage of useful data by the firm and the protection of the users’ privacy.  Moreover, the book attempts to translate the influence of data protection policies on the economic growth.
