The new GDPR is an evolution of the EU’s existing data rules, the Data Protection Directive (DPD). It address many of the shortcomings in the DPD: adding requirements for documenting IT procedures, performing risk assessments under certain conditions, notifying the consumer and authorities when there is a breach, as well as strengthening rules for data minimization.
One way to describe the GDPR is that it simply legislates a lot of common sense data security ideas, especially from the Privacy by Design school of thought: minimize collection of personal data, delete personal data that’s no longer necessary, restrict access, and secure data through its entire lifecycle.
This workshop will cover:
• What is GDPR and why it’s overdue
• Key changes brought in by GDPR
• The ICO (Information Commissioners Office) – Higher fines and greater powers
• How GDPR will affect all businesses
• Potential Risks and Data Breaches
• Starting your GDPR journey
