- ✓DSB1.1.2Maintains up-to-date antivirus software, firewalls and other security measures to protect data
- ✓DSB1.1.3Performs checks for missing values, outliers or inconsistencies in data
- ✓DSB1.1.4Works solely with necessary variables relevant to current analysis or modeling
DSB2Secure A/B Testing
DSB2.1Obtaining participant consent
- ✓DSB2.1.1Communicates clearly the purpose of testing, data collected and any potential risks that might be involved
DSB2.2Secure storage of testing data
- ✓DSB2.2.1Stores data in encrypted databases or file systems
- ✓DSB2.2.2Uses cryptographic techniques such as digital signature or hash functions to identify unauthorized tampering of data
- ✓DSB2.2.3Minimizes the collection of sensitive or unnecessary information to reduce potential risks
