Data minimization involves collecting and retaining only the minimum amount of personal data necessary for a specific purpose. By limiting the amount of data stored and processed, organizations reduce the amount of data that could be exposed to potential threats like unauthorized access, breaches, or cyberattacks. A smaller threat surface means there are fewer opportunities for malicious actors to exploit vulnerabilities, making it the most significant benefit of data minimization from a security standpoint.
