You’ve heard about the need to get involved in business strategy discussions to help drive business value and growth. But how can you avoid stepping out of your lane or being told not to slow things down? In our last blog, we discussed how zero-access data analytics solutions like Duality’s can be used to first address the exploding risks seen with third-party data arrangements. This new capability begs the question, “If we can apply zero-access data analytics to reduce risk in using sensitive data, can it also be used in a way that drives growth or improves ROI on business initiatives?” Such a platform provides data and security teams a force-multiplier for their data-driven initiatives in two ways: 1. Improving ROI by identifying data-driven initiatives wherein security, compliance, or privacy requirements demand time and/or money. 2. Unlocking growth by focusing on initiatives that are limited or slowed by complexities found in compliance, security, or privacy; e.g., data monetization. TABLE STAKES: COMMUNICATING VALUE In order for CISOs, CPOs, and CDAOs to become growth drivers and leaders, they must communicate effectively. This means using language that starts with business value and is supported by use cases and technical capabilities. By shifting to this order, conversations with non-technical leadership will be more engaging versus asking for approval of a foregone conclusion explained by technical capabilities and use cases alone. For example, Gartner notes, “Top performing CISOs regularly meet with three times as many non-IT stakeholders as they do IT stakeholders.” Rob Woods puts it succinctly: “Security teams cannot do everything,” and continues to point out the obvious opportunities in working closely with other departments. Security teams’ work adds value when others understand and make use of it. DISCOVERING OPPORTUNITIES FOR IMPROVED ROI The following questions can help CISOs, CPOs, and CDAOs identify key areas where ROI and value can be enhanced with zero-access data analytics: * Is a manual process to protect sensitive data used or required (e.g., data de-identification)? * Are lengthy legal and compliance processes needed in order to access or analyze a data set? * Are data and analytics protections technically enforced, or only organizationally enforced? * Do any methods used for data privacy and protection require trusting a third party? * With whom do we have data sharing agreements? * How are we monetizing data or analytics? If not, would we like to? But, what if you’re not the one with those answers? Ideally, identifying where complex processes and technologies exist is as easy as searching through a data inventory or a recent audit report. However, we all know that such documents are notoriously difficult to create and maintain due to the speed and sprawl of data across cloud services. Additionally, such documentation may not reflect current initiatives, goals, or wishes. Here are two ways to find out what’s being done or considered: 1. Start with corporate objectives. It may go without saying, but always align with corporate objectives. This will help appropriately prioritize and position discussions for maximum impact and support. Follow the trail from strategic objectives to the data-tactics required. This will provide a short list of high-profile, data-driven initiatives. 2. Ask the users. Driving growth needs to be inclusive, so having strong relationships and regular conversations outside your specific team is highly recommended. Data Teams should have a good idea of where such processes are being used because they’re the primary players/users. The Privacy Team may also have records of where such processes exist THE ‘LOW-HANGING FRUIT’: DEATH TO DE-IDENTIFICATION Out with the old, in with the new. If an organization is using de-identification in any operation, there’s a high likelihood of being able to improve its ROI. Why? De-identification is a process-driven tactic that removes specific data points making it hard – but not impossible (not GDPR compliant) – for someone with access to the dataset to identify a particular person or group therein. Whether by tokenization or removal, this comes at a cost found in time to value, quality of insights, and the utility of the data overall. There is significant time spent between the data owners, data analyzers, and privacy/security experts in determining that the dataset meets requirements while still providing a minimal level of value to the analyzers. In healthcare, the method is called expert determination which adds even more time and cost to the effort. In any case, when valuable data context is removed from a dataset, the value and quality of insights that can be derived are also reduced. This leaves many wondering, if insights aren’t actionable, what’s the point? In a recent example, Colin Woodard, Director of Nationhood Lab, mentioned the detrimental impact of working with restricted data by saying, “For privacy reasons the [CDC] suppresses county data with low numbers, which wreaks havoc on efforts to calculate rates for less numerous ethno-racial groups.” This is not uncommon. In addition, such subsets are limited in utility since they can’t be linked with other, disparate datasets. This means that a de-identified dataset must be valuable enough on its own, which is problematic in the face of the growing need for collaboration among data-driven enterprises. Virtually any operation utilizing de-identification processes will benefit from zero-access analytics by: 1. Enhancing security and reducing risk (deidentification does not satisfy anonymization). 2. Reducing time to value & preparation costs by streamlining processes. 3. Improving the quality of insights by working with full data context. 4. Improving data utility since disparate datasets can be linked. 5. Remove or severely limit the movement of data prior to use. The values in modernizing such a process for today’s data-driven enterprises should be quite clear. Most of the work will be aligning the many stakeholders involved. DATA MONETIZATION Data monetization: Two words that are sure to send chills down the spine of those responsible for data governance, protection, security, or privacy. To explain the adrenaline rush caused by such an initiative, we must mention the core prerequisites versus the operational difficulties. First, the organization needs to have its data under control and organized. Commonly, the answer will vary based on the datasets and data types being discussed. Wrangling data sprawled across services and clouds is daunting even without regulations in mind. Once the baseline preparation is done (or nearly there), we can begin building a plan to operationalize data monetization as a new revenue stream with security, privacy, and compliance requirements met or exceeded. Today, the status of data monetization efforts in data-driven organizations typically falls under one of the following three descriptions: * An established line of business. * Done, but in limited circumstances. * A desired future. ESTABLISHED LINE OF BUSINESS – IMPROVING ROI AND TAM If selling data to 3rd parties is already an established line of business (or your only line of business), there’s an opportunity to both improve ROI and expand the total addressable market (TAM) using a zero-access approach. For example, sensitive datasets are often sold in their entirety rather than accessed through a portal. The customer will receive and host this data (note* a risk, time, and cost increase) on their end before making use of it. This is largely driven by client requirements to keep their analytical needs and insights private – without visibility from the vendor – due to security, regulatory, or intellectual property concerns. This approach can be cost prohibitive, reduces the quality of insights, and may limit the geographies in which such a service can be offered due to data localization and transfer laws. Using a zero-access analytics platform allows vendors to satisfy data localization and transfer laws, reduce costs of service delivery, setup time, and total cost of ownership (TCO) while satisfying the needs of their clients. By reducing costs and complexities, data vendors can expand to new geographies and customer segments, driving profitability and overall revenue growth with the addition of wholly new audiences. Duality provides options to query, analyze joined/linked data sets, or run models on encrypted data. The above shows the Duality Query flow, where sensitive query parameters are hidden from commercial data vendors. SPECIAL CASES OR A DESIRED FUTURE – OPERATIONALIZING A DATA SERVICE Almost all organizations have data that is valuable to other organizations, an opportunity many are beginning to explore. The “data gold mine” realization is often followed by enthusiasm. Unfortunately, the momentum is lost in the fray of complexities and requirements identified by security, data, IT, and privacy/legal teams. These complexities can limit data monetization to strategic relationships or special circumstances only, if at all. A zero-access analytics platform removes arguably the most significant complications in setting up a scalable operation; data access, protection, security, and privacy. With a platform that checks all boxes by default, all that remains is to have customers install a piece of software to begin gaining value from your new, or newly expanded, line of business. TWO BIRDS, ONE STONE If you’re looking for a way to impact growth from the risk side of the aisle, a platform like Duality’s provides many such opportunities while simultaneously improving overall risk posture. Using a zero-access analytics platform eliminates risk from sensitive data use, improves ROI for data initiatives, and can generate more revenue by turning valuable wish lists into realities. By introducing a zero-access analytics platform in the context of improving ROI and unlocking growth-driving initiatives, risk leaders like the CISO, CPO, and CDAO earn their place at the table as growth leaders rather than simply being service department heads. WHAT’S NEXT? In blog 1, we covered how to eliminate risk from common, 3rd party data arrangements to prove that data in-use can be secure. We’ve now discussed how to improve ROI for existing, but complex, data operations. Next, we’ll talk about paths to strategic growth and innovation by exploring options that either couldn’t be done or haven’t been considered. Book a demo with us to learn more.

To fulfill this, we aim to adhere as strictly as possible to the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) at the AA level. These guidelines explain how to make web content accessible to people with a wide array of disabilities. Complying with those guidelines helps us ensure that the website is accessible to blind people, people with motor impairments, visual impairment, cognitive disabilities, and more. This website utilizes various technologies that are meant to make it as accessible as possible at all times. We utilize an accessibility interface that allows persons with specific disabilities to adjust the website’s UI (user interface) and design it to their personal needs. Additionally, the website utilizes an AI-based application that runs in the background and optimizes its accessibility level constantly. This application remediates the website’s HTML, adapts its functionality and behavior for screen-readers used by blind users, and for keyboard functions used by individuals with motor impairments. If you wish to contact the website’s owner please use the website's form Screen-reader and keyboard navigation Our website implements the ARIA attributes (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) technique, alongside various behavioral changes, to ensure blind users visiting with screen-readers can read, comprehend, and enjoy the website’s functions. As soon as a user with a screen-reader enters your site, they immediately receive a prompt to enter the Screen-Reader Profile so they can browse and operate your site effectively. Here’s how our website covers some of the most important screen-reader requirements: 1. Screen-reader optimization: we run a process that learns the website’s components from top to bottom, to ensure ongoing compliance even when updating the website. In this process, we provide screen-readers with meaningful data using the ARIA set of attributes. For example, we provide accurate form labels; descriptions for actionable icons (social media icons, search icons, cart icons, etc.); validation guidance for form inputs; element roles such as buttons, menus, modal dialogues (popups), and others. Additionally, the background process scans all of the website’s images. It provides an accurate and meaningful image-object-recognition-based description as an ALT (alternate text) tag for images that are not described. It will also extract texts embedded within the image using an OCR (optical character recognition) technology. To turn on screen-reader adjustments at any time, users need only to press the Alt+1 keyboard combination. Screen-reader users also get automatic announcements to turn the Screen-reader mode on as soon as they enter the website. These adjustments are compatible with popular screen readers such as JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver, and TalkBack. 2. Keyboard navigation optimization: The background process also adjusts the website’s HTML and adds various behaviors using JavaScript code to make the website operable by the keyboard. This includes the ability to navigate the website using the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, operate dropdowns with the arrow keys, close them with Esc, trigger buttons and links using the Enter key, navigate between radio and checkbox elements using the arrow keys, and fill them in with the Spacebar or Enter key. Additionally, keyboard users will find content-skip menus available at any time by clicking Alt+2, or as the first element of the site while navigating with the keyboard. The background process also handles triggered popups by moving the keyboard focus towards them as soon as they appear, not allowing the focus to drift outside. Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.

Font adjustments – users can increase and decrease its size, change its family (type), adjust the spacing, alignment, line height, and more. 2. Color adjustments – users can select various color contrast profiles such as light, dark, inverted, and monochrome. Additionally, users can swap color schemes of titles, texts, and backgrounds with over seven different coloring options. 3. Animations – epileptic users can stop all running animations with the click of a button. Animations controlled by the interface include videos, GIFs, and CSS flashing transitions. 4. Content highlighting – users can choose to emphasize essential elements such as links and titles. They can also choose to highlight focused or hovered elements only. 5. Audio muting – users with hearing devices may experience headaches or other issues due to automatic audio playing. This option lets users mute the entire website instantly. 6. Cognitive disorders – we utilize a search engine linked to Wikipedia and Wiktionary, allowing people with cognitive disorders to decipher meanings of phrases, initials, slang, and others. 7. Additional functions – we allow users to change cursor color and size, use a printing mode, enable a virtual keyboard, and many other functions. Assistive technology and browser compatibility We aim to support as many browsers and assistive technologies as possible, so our users can choose the best fitting tools for them, with as few limitations as possible. Therefore, we have worked very hard to be able to support all major systems that comprise over 95% of the user market share, including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera and Microsoft Edge, JAWS, and NVDA (screen readers), both for Windows and MAC users. Notes, comments, and feedback Despite our very best efforts to allow anybody to adjust the website to their needs, there may still be pages or sections that are not fully accessible, are in the process of becoming accessible, or are lacking an adequate technological solution to make them accessible. Still, we are continually improving our accessibility, adding, updating, improving its options and features, and developing and adopting new technologies. All this is meant to reach the optimal level of accessibility following technological advancements.
