Castlebridge announces another exciting partnership in the Data Protection by Design space
One of the key questions from audiences was “What do we need to do now to avoid penalities in the future?” Unfortunatley it wasn’t actually asked in that way so I’m having to exercise some license here when answering the question. the glib answer is that you start avoiding penalties in the future by avoiding them in the present. The less glib answer requires you to start from two specific points, one temporal and one strategic. I’ll explain briefly what I mean.
That last point is simple but significant in my view. The future is not yet 100% defined. The Regulation will, inevitably, be fudged and watered down in some areas. However, the core principles of the Regulation are the same as the core principles of Directive 95/46/EC. They have just been built upon and updated to reflect the reality and challenges of the Information Age we now live and work in. A mistake under today’s rules will be an offence under the Regulation. The penalties in the future will be higher. Therefore, organisations should heed the words of Stephen Covey and start to be proactive about Data Protection Compliance by focussing on the things they can control today.
And that is your capability to comply with the current rules, and the decisions your organisation is taking today around governance, training, and investment for better management of information as a strategic and valuable business resource.
