BeCyberSure Launches Specialist GDPR Risk Assessment
April 2017 by Marc Jacob
BeCyberSure announced the launch of the most comprehensive GDPR Risk Assessment available. Conducted by security, risk and compliance specialists the audit provides organisations with a definitive evaluation of their GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) readiness, as well as what needs to be done to ensure compliance, ahead of the 25th May 2018 deadline.
GDPR supersedes the UK Data Protection Act 1998 and applies to every company that collects, processes or stores an EU citizen’s data, regardless of sector, size and geographical location. The deadline for compliance is 25th May 2018 and the enforcement of the regulation is unaffected by the UK’s decision to leave the EU.
The BeCyberSure GDPR Risk Assessment currently provides the most rigorous audit process available. The assessment is conducted on and off site by a GDPR specialist, beginning with a detailed review of company policies and governance, procedures and processes, an assessment of physical aspects (such as access to buildings, storage of paper documents etc.) and if deemed necessary an extensive digital vulnerability test. The audit also involves formal and informal (covert) interviews with employees as well as heads of department.
BeCyberSure has a senior team of GDPR auditors who have a wealth of experience with backgrounds in risk management and compliance, cybersecurity, policing, intelligence services and the military.
GDPR Risk Assessments are available from BeCyberSure now.
