Understanding GDPR Compliance

The EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a European regulation that requires all EU organizations to safeguard their customers’ data and privacy rights. It aims at unifying the way of handling, storing, and processing personal and sensitive data across the EU. Cyber attackers are constantly on a hunt to steal consumer data to misuse it for fraud or identity theft. Becoming GDPR compliant ensures that your company has implemented the best standards to ensure data safety.The requirements of GDPR are listed in the Data Protection Act 2018 (DPA) in the UK. Some of these requirements include:

GDPR Security Requirements

Article 5 Article 5 lists regulations that mandate the use of personal data in utmost security using various measures to protect against the loss, damage, or unauthorized and unlawful data processing.

Steps You Can Take to Comply with the GDPR

You can take the below-mentioned steps or approach to make compliance with GDPR more manageable.

Access

all the data sources regardless of the storage technology, type of data, or whether it is no motion or at rest. This will get you seamless access to all the personal and sensitive data stored across the data landscape to evaluate risks and enforce security measures precisely.

Identify

the personal data from the data sources and categorize them based on the elements, such as names, ID numbers, and other information available. You need to have the right automation tools to categorize such a vast amount of data and further accommodate it with varying levels of data quality and impact it can have.

Govern

the personal data by enforcing privacy rules and security measures across your organization. It is also essential to document and share these rules and best practices. Using IAM tools to assign roles will be beneficial to prevent any unauthorized access to the data

Protect

the data after identifying personal data and establishing the governance model. You can use different encryption and other protection techniques to protect sensitive information while ensuring seamless access when needed for analysis, forecasting, reporting, and other business uses. The best thing to do here is to keep only the critical data required to run your business while deleting the rest.

Audit

The final step is to audit your security posture to make it GDPR compliant. This involves producing reports to illustrate that you are well aware of where personal data is stored across your infrastructure, you can manage and process it securely after taking the consent of the customers, and have the right security tools in place to detect and respond to breaches.
