Restricted Data
Restricted Data refers to information that is subject to access controls, legal protections, or security classifications, limiting who can view, use, or share it. This includes sensitive data like personal identifiable information (PII), financial records, intellectual property, and government-classified materials. Developers must handle such data with care to ensure compliance with regulations and prevent unauthorized access or breaches.
Developers should learn about Restricted Data to build secure applications that protect sensitive information, especially in industries like healthcare, finance, and government where data privacy laws (e.g., GDPR, HIPAA) apply. Understanding this concept helps in implementing proper access controls, encryption, and audit trails to avoid legal penalties and maintain user trust.
