__________ calls for inclusion of data protection from the onset of the designing of systems.

The concept of "Privacy by Design" is a core principle emphasized in the DSCI Privacy Framework (DPF©) and DSCI Assessment Framework for Privacy (DAF-P©). This principle requires that privacy be integrated into the design specifications and architecture of IT systems and business processes, right from the start of the development process rather than being added later as an afterthought.

The DSCI Privacy Framework states:

"Privacy by Design is a proactive approach that embeds privacy into the design and operation of IT systems, networked infrastructure, and business practices. It aims to ensure that privacy is built into the system by default, thereby preventing privacy-invasive events before they happen."

This ensures data protection is foundational to system architecture and not merely a compliance requirement added later. This proactive method mitigates risks and enhances user trust by safeguarding personal information through preventive measures rather than reactive ones.
