The new technologies, the emerging are those that introduce something new, never seen or known technology but, so far, had no practical application. In other words, the new technologies are not the internet, nor the smartphone, nor the whole set of technologies that have been with us for a decade or two but are still labeled with that term.
They are also disruptive technologies, those that revolutionize the way of doing things or that introduce something so novel that they “break” in the market and have great transformative potential. Clear and recent examples are blockchain technology, 5G, the Internet of Things or smart personal assistants.
If we add to the novelty that these technologies represent for the majority of people to the uncertainty or ignorance of the new privacy and data protection regulations (such as the RGPD ), it is logical that doubts arise about whether our data will be safe, or not.
To be sure, there is nothing better than following the recommendations of the Internet Safety Office to confidently adopt any new technology through a smartphone application, for example, through a web service.
It must be said that it is mandatory for all companies to comply with the General Data Protection Regulation but provided that their registered office is in the European Union. In other words, all Spanish companies will be obliged to comply with the RGPD, but not all companies apply this law because they are located in other countries.
That said, it is vitally important to keep our devices up-to-date with regard to both the operating system and software and especially to anyone who has to do with security.
Many people are attracted to adopting novel technologies as they appear on the market, and even earlier. Early access programs or “betas” allow interested users (early adopters) to test these functionalities, technologies or applications before ordinary users. As long as we follow the recommendations outlined above, we can rest assured regarding the privacy of our data.
