The EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) replaces the Data Protection Directive 95/46/EC.
ControlCase, a leading global provider of Compliance as a Service (CaaS), Certifications, and IT Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC) software is pleased to announce the release of its GDPR readiness assessment program which is enabled through the company’s CaaS platform. This marks the latest development in ControlCase’s market leading portfolio of services.
The EU’s GDPR aims to standardize data privacy laws across Europe, regulate the way organizations manage data privacy as well as empower and protect the data and privacy of EU citizens. The standard applies to all entities processing personal data of any subjects residing in the EU, regardless of the entity’s location. Failure to comply will see organizations charged with fines of up to €20 Million or 4% of annual global turnover (whichever is greater). Under the GDPR, breach notification will now be mandatory as well as data portability and right to access and be forgotten.
“GDPR comes into effect on May 25th, 2018. The ControlCase readiness assessment program is designed to assess an organization’s compliance and collaborate to ensure processes are updated to meet the stringent standard,” said Satya Rane, Sr VP – R&D of ControlCase.
