Safeguarding Data Privacy: Enhancing Cybersecurity Measures for Protecting Personal Data in the United States

Abstract

But in the US, which has seen an explosion of data breaches and privacy violations over the past
several years as society collectively logged more information into digital systems than ever
before recorded protecting a person's personal financial details is essential. This review paper
exposes more of the advanced cyber security measures that could prevent data breach in different
forms. We evaluate the potential of newly-developed technologies and strategies, such as
encryption solutions, access controls Systems Multifactor authentication (MFA) Strategies
Threat Detection Ai based system. This study aims to evaluate these checks under the umbrella
of today’s data privacy regulations and compliance standards, in order to provide insights into
best practices while also analyzing their appropriateness against risks. To demonstrate the utility
and efficiency of these security measures, we illustrate practical case studies leading to realworld applications based on empirical data available from a wide range of sources. The results
show that although of course traditional methods will never become obsolete, new technologies
and AI-based tools actually increase the levels of safety and privacy in dealing with data. The
paper ends by offering guidance to organizations around strategic ways in which they can
strengthen their cybersecurity frameworks and meet the ever-changing landscape of regulatory
requirements that govern how personal data needs to be protected, both now and into an
uncertain future for U.S. privacy law.
