The GDPR will come into effect May 25th 2018 - it has been meticulously designed to enhance the security of Personally Identifiable Information (PII) belonging to EU citizens, in an age of ever-developing technology and cyber-attack sophistication. Hence, individuals are required to develop an extensive appreciation for the constituents of a continuous compliance programme, in order to initiate the overhaul of operational systems in organisations with a central data processing, storage, or monitoring function.
