Amid the rapid development of high technologies such as e-commerce, artificial intelligence, biotechnology and big-data, huge opportunities come along with various risks, such as hacker attacks, computer virus, lack of adequate knowledge and risk management of data security and personal data privacy protection in the enterprises. As e-commerce grows rapidly and technologies of big-data, artificial intelligence, biotechnology and machine learning are widely applied, a vast volume of data is collected and processed during the operations that in turns greatly increases the risk of leakage of sensitive and confidential personal data.

Risk of litigation soars as a result of continuous increase in scale and complexity of breach and stringent requirements and standards by the regulatory bodies.
