What is the essence of the principle ‘Full Lifecycle Protection’?

Delivering the maximum degree of data protection by default, ensuring that personal data are automatically protected in any given IT system or business practice.

Ensuring that whatever business practice or technology is involved, processing is done according to the stated objectives, subject to independent verification.

Embedding security measures to protect the data from the moment it is collected, throughout processing until it is destroyed at the end of the process.

Prioritizing the protection of the interests of the individual by offering for example strong privacy defaults, appropriate notice or empowering user-friendly options.
