Considering the threats you plan to protect this data from (e.g., insider attack, external user), make sure you encrypt all sensitive data at rest and in transit in a manner that defends against these threats.
Don't Don’t store sensitive data unnecessarily. Discard it as soon as possible. Data you don't have can't don’t have can’t be stolen.
Ensure strong standard algorithms and strong keys are used, and proper key management is in place. Consider using FIPS 140 validated cryptographic modules.
Ensure passwords are stored with an algorithm specifically designed for password protection, such as bcrypt, PBKDF2, or scrypt.
Disable autocomplete on forms collecting sensitive data and disable caching for pages that contain sensitive data.
