For most companies, ensuring company GDPR compliance has been a lengthy and arduous process but one that is necessary to ensure your organisation can provide evidence that it is following the regulation.

The EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) was implemented May 2018 and introduced a new era in personal data security. GDPR is a big deal as it requires businesses across the globe to change the way they work when it comes to the personal data of EU citizens. GDPR puts customer privacy at its core, making privacy a fundamental customer's right and ensuring personal data is kept safe away from prying eyes. 

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) will come into force in May 2018 across the EU, changing the way businesses record and store personal data. A year from now may seem a way off but businesses need to consider their GDPR strategies sooner rather than later to ensure compliance.
