GDPR – Will you be ready?

Published on 31/01/2018

Summary: What is the GDPR?  Who needs to comply? In this session we reviewed the highlights of the new General Data Protection Regulation, and what companies should be doing to prepare.

The EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) replaces the Data Protection Directive 95/46/EC and is designed to:

  • Harmonize data privacy laws across Europe,
  • Protect and empower all EU citizens data privacy
  • Reshape the way organizations across the region approach data privacy.

GDPR reshapes the way in which sectors manage data, as well as redefines the roles for key leaders in businesses, from CIOs to CMOs. CIOs must ensure that they have watertight consent management processes in place, whilst CMOs require effective data rights management systems to ensure they don’t lose their most valuable asset – data.

Panelist(s): Gayle White, Director, Business Process Management, msi Global Talent Solutions
