HARRIET GREEN, chairman and CEO of IBM Asia Pacific, has very strong views on data privacy in the Big Data era of today's digital age.
"We (IBM) believe in complete respect, security and protection of a client's data and that the data and the information contained in it is a proprietary asset (belonging to the client)," says the soft-spoken British businesswoman, who Fast Company last year named one of its 100 Most Creative People in Business for 2017.
Elaborating on the issue of data breaches, something that has gained currency in recent months, Ms Green adds that IBM has a unique approach to how it treats ethics, security and the question of data ownership. IBM works with enterprises, and recognises that data is one of their most important resources, she says.
