Contact us GDPR (Personal Data Protection) for SAP and Salesforce Solutions
The EU Regulation on the protection of individuals and their personal data is here (GDPR – General Data Protection Regulation). It introduces new safety requirements and obligations which the affected companies must meet within 25. 5. 2018. Executive management cannot wait for local legislation, and yet it must focus on preparing its employees, processes, and technologies.
Who is concerned by the GDPR?
The Regulation applies to a large majority of institutions: larger companies and smaller businesses, for example, processing data about their clients, using data for marketing purposes, monitoring their customers’ behavior, having their camera systems, or e-shops.
These are all organizations that have their employees’ attendance system, customer database, or job seekers, backup and archive data, contracts, or encrypt data. Thus, all businesses having personal data stored on their servers, sending them over networks to data repositories, and using different applications.
What does that mean to you?
The main obligations that come out of the GDPR are:
- Providing prevention of data leakage and personal data;
- Preventing unauthorized access to personal data;
- Introduction of anonymization of personal data;
- Obligation to designate the responsible person;
- Ensuring the safe disposal of personal data;
- Managing and monitoring personal data activities;
- Ensuring the resilience of personal data processing systems against data loss and outages;
- Ability to identify, analyze and document security incidents in a timely manner;
- Regular testing of personal data security;
- Establishing encryption of data and personal data.
Non-compliance with the Regulation threatens is subject to a fine up to EUR 20 mil. or 4% of the company’s annual global revenue (the higher value applies).
