GDPR: Data Protection Forum tackles the key issues

11 Oct 2017

It is only a few months until the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) comes into force on 25 May, 2018.

And with the deadline fast approaching, last week’s Future of Data Protection Forum took the opportunity to address the challenges posed by GDPR, focusing on business readiness and key priorities to consider.

Throughout an engaging day of discussion, expert speakers from a wide range of industries shared insightful practical tips for managing the main aspects of the new regulation, while examining the type of plans businesses need to adopt to avoid risk.

Delegates were also treated to a number of diverse sessions on topics including the cloud and supply chain; ensuring it works in relation to GDPR, as well as thought provoking insight on the new era of cyber threats and tips on storing customer data.
