You only need to look back to last year to recognize that massive data breaches are a concern for organizations around the globe. Unfortunately, HR is not exempt from these data hacks. Why would anyone hack HR data, though? There are numerous reasons/motivations including the desire for performance-related information on union employees or compensation information for competitors in a specific market.

Oracle Cloud Services with HCM Cloud provide security. Oracle offers role-based access to help ensure that only users with proper permissions can access and edit sensitive data. Audit controls allow organizations to track and report data activity. Label security enables organizations to classify and manage access to their data. Features in Oracle Cloud HCM help ensure that virtual private databases collect and display only the classes of data approved for use.  Anonymization and data-masking tools support privacy policies and practices.

General Data Protection Regulation was a game-changer for online security standards. It harmonized data privacy across Europe.

Oracle provides services beyond standards of data privacy. These include:

• data masking to anonymize data in no-production environments;
• data vaults;
• break-glass procedures to limit emergency access to encryption keys and customer’s environments,
• bastion controls,
• data centers in all regions of the world
• and role-based access control and identity management.

Think about security not as work that needs to be completed but as addressing your corporate risks.
