Overview

The new Data Protection Act 2018 and General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) requires you to report data breaches to the ICO, if an individual’s rights and freedoms are negatively affected.

This new mandatory duty requires organisations to be more effective at identifying data breaches and determining whether a personal data breach should be reported.

With individual public sector organisations recently being fined £120,000, it is essential that your organisation has the necessary training to handle and report personal data breaches.

By booking the public sector-tailored Effectively Handling and Reporting Personal Data Breaches training course for your teams In-House, you’ll gain the necessary skills to identify and respond to a data breach, ensuring risk is mitigated rapidly.
