GDPR/DPA Legislation
General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)
To meet the evolving needs of data protection, the GDPR was developed to give citizens back control of their personal data – strengthening and unifying data protection for individuals within the EU, whilst addressing the export of personal data outside the EU. With the demise of Safe Harbour, companies that export and handle the personal data of European citizens will also need to comply with the new requirements put forth or be subject to consequences.
GDPR Compliance Assessment
According to recent research, over half of businesses lack preparedness for the GDPR. The GDPR Compliance Assessment from EurotekNS helps organisations achieve compliance to the GDPR. Performing a thorough review of security policies and infrastructure in place, as well as agreements with 3rd party suppliers which may process data on their behalf, we identify and gaps to compliance and provide a clear path to bridge the gap.
