Abstract

Abstract : Since the new European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) on the protection of personal data was voted in, businesses have been working towards the transition that will take place in May 2018. 1 With just a year to comply, they are considering issues such as strengthened cyber-security, liability of data collection entities and new mandatory procedures. With the imminent arrival of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), many businesses have been working towards the transition that will take place in May 2018. With just a year to comply, they are considering issues such as strengthened cyber-security, liability of data collection entities and new mandatory procedures. The GDPR will force firms to catch up with the threat of cyber-security in relation to strategy, legislation and operations. Businesses need to restore order to their operations, and this has many facets and challenges, as Jocelyn Krystlik of Stormshield explains.
