Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology

The term combines 'data', originating from the Latin plural of 'datum' (meaning 'that which is given') introduced into English in the mid-17th century, and 'security', derived from the Latin 'securitas' (freedom from concern), appearing in late Middle English. Together, the compound emerged in the late 20th century with the rise of digital computing to describe the practice of protecting electronic information.
