48% de los mexicanos desconoce leyes de protección de datos
The research reveals a concerning disconnect between data protection legislation and public and corporate awareness. Half of Mexican users are unaware of their fundamental rights regarding data collection, while most companies do not train their staff on these regulations. This lack of education creates an environment where human negligence becomes the primary vector for cyberattacks, exposing both individuals and organizations to severe fines and critical data breaches. The relevance to the open data movement lies in the need to balance transparency with security. While open data fosters innovation and accountability, the lack of legal and technical literacy increases privacy risks. Without a solid foundation of informed users and trained employees, any open data initiative could be compromised by security breaches that expose sensitive information, eroding the public trust essential to the digital ecosystem. To mitigate these risks, it is imperative to prioritize continuous education and the implementation of strict security policies. Organizations must go beyond technical measures, focusing on the human factor as the first line of defense. Only by ensuring that all actors understand their legal rights and responsibilities can a sustainable balance be achieved, where data transparency does not compromise the integrity and privacy of citizens.
