  6. Data protection is one of the main points during security testing of a software product. Test engineers have to find out whether the mentioned conditions are met.

  7. Besides, it is necessary to check whether the data are not corrupted or lost during coding, decoding and transitions. One should make sure that sensitive information does not appear in a readable form anywhere, for example, in the browser address line.

  8. Manual and automated testing is applied for checking data protection. This part of software testing must be carried out thoroughly; otherwise the application users and owners may face serious problems.
