Data literacy helps people research about products while shopping over the
internet
How do you decide the following things when we are shopping online?
● Which is the cheapest product available?
● Which product is liked by the users the most?
● Does a particular product meet all the requirements?

A data literate person can –


● Filter the category as per the requirement – If the budget is low, select the price filter as low to high
● Check the user ratings of the products
● Check for specific requirements in the product

Data Literacy Process Framework

The data literacy framework provides guidance on using data efficiently and with all levels of awareness.
Data literacy framework is an iterative process.

2.1.4 What are Data Security and Privacy? How are they related to
AI?
Data Privacy and Data Security are often used interchangeably but they are different from each other.

What is Data Privacy?


Data privacy referred to as information privacy is concerned with the proper handling of sensitive data
including personal data and other confidential data, such as certain financial data and intellectual
property data, to meet regulatory requirements as well as protecting the confidentiality and
immutability of the data.

Here are examples of two things which may compromise our data privacy

Why is it important?

78
The following best practices can help you ensure data privacy:
● Understanding what data, you have collected, how it is handled, and where it is stored.
● Necessary data required for a project should only be collected.
● User consent while data collection must be of utmost importance.

What is Data Security?


Data security is the practice of protecting digital information from
unauthorized access, corruption, or theft throughout its entire lifecycle.

Why is it important?

Due to the rising amount of data in the cloud there is an increased risk of
cyber threats. The most appropriate step for such an amount of traffic being generated is how we
control and protect the transfer of sensitive or personal information at every known place.
The most possible reasons why data security is more important now are:
• Cyber-attacks affect all the people
• The fast-technological changes will boom cyber attacks

2.1.5 Best Practices for Cyber Security


Cyber security involves protecting computers, servers, mobile devices,
electronic systems, networks, and data from harmful attacks.
