The EU GDPR introduces the role of Data Protection Officer (DPO) as an individual possessing specific qualities and skills.  Privacy is no longer just a compliance or security issue.  It has become a strategic topic at boardroom level since significant changes to the European legislation were announced.  In today’s business environment, increasing focus is being placed on privacy and (cyber) security compliance, governance and incident management.  To be successful, companies need privacy professionals who are capable to manage privacy and security in a risk based and integrated manner.

The EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is the biggest change to data protection laws in the past 20 years.  It brings with it many new opportunities, but also various challenges for organisations to become compliant.  The Hansal Data Protection Officer (DPO) Service is a cost-effective solution for organisations that don’t have the internal data protection expertise to meet their DPO obligations under the GDPR.

Testimonials

Professionally, his deep knowledge of GDPR and data privacy coupled with long experience of information security best practice and an ability to cut through the noise and explain highly complex topics in clear, straightforward English is of outstanding value. Having a DPO with these attributes is critical for any organisation. I thoroughly enjoy working with Martin and would highly recommend him – Conor R.
