DNA data security has become increasingly important in both Brazil and the USA due to growing concerns about genetic discrimination, privacy rights, and the expansion of direct-to-consumer genetic testing. In Brazil, this is regulated under LGPD (Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados), while in the USA, HIPAA and state-level genetic privacy laws govern the protection of genetic information. The term reflects a broader global conversation about bioethics and individual rights in the age of personalized medicine.
