Description

In current times Data is the biggest economic opportunity. As per the studies, it is observed that the world is becoming 2.5 quintillions data-rich every day, with an average of every human contributing 1.7MB of data per second. Every individual has a good appetite for data, as it gives immense insight to explore and expand the business. With the invention of smart devices and innovation in the field of connectivity such as 4G-5G Mobile Networks and Wi-Fi, the generation and consumption of the data are steadily increasing. These smart devices continuously generate data, leading to a bigger pool for better decision-making. This chapter presents data, the various forms and sources, and the concept of Data Science; it discusses how the ownership and value of data are decided; and also highlights the use, abuse, and overuse of the data along with data theft, and a case study to represent data breach. 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.
