GDPR
GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) is an abbreviation for EU Regulation 2016/679 on the protection of personal data, which was adopted by the European Parliament and the Council. This regulation came into effect on 25 May 2018 and organisations are required to comply with its requirements.
Who is GDPR applicable to?
The regulation applies to the vast majority of institutions: larger companies and smaller businesses, if, for example, they process data about their clients, use data for marketing purposes, monitor the behaviour of their customers, have a camera system or an e-shop. This applies to all organisations that have an attendance system for their employees, a database of customers or job applicants, back up and archive data, contracts or encrypt data. In other words, all companies that have personal data stored on servers, send it over networks to data repositories and use various applications.
What does this mean for you and us?
The main obligations that we, as an institution, have under the GDPR are, for example:
Ensuring the prevention of data leakage and personal data
Preventing unauthorized access to personal data
Introducing the anonymization of personal data
Obligation to designate a responsible person
Guaranteeing the secure deletion/disposal of personal data
Managing and monitoring activities with personal data
Ensuring the resilience of systems processing personal data against outages and data loss
The ability to identify security incidents in a timely manner, analyze them and document them
Regular testing of personal data security
Introducing data encryption and personal data
