The Little Book of GDPR: Getting on the Path to Compliance

By Darren Wray

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is the biggest change to data protection requirements since the creation of the first data protection regulation in the 1980s. One of the biggest impacts is that organisations irrespective of their geographic location will need to comply, or face the potential of a large fine (the greater of e20m or 4% of global revenue).If your organisation collects or processes personal information (similar to Personal Identifiable Information/PII in the United States) or those within the EU then your organisation will need to have a process in place to comply.The purpose of this book to introduce the reader to the GDPR, and what it requires organisations to do in order to comply, and to keep the personal information that it processes protected. This book is written in a way that will help the reader to understand the requirements for their organisation, and is armed with the knowledge to not only learn more, but also to judge the value of the sometimes mid-leading information that is published on the Internet about the subject.This book includes sections on:* The aims of the GDPR* The differences between the Data Protection Directive and the GDPR* The Data Subject's rights* The importance of Consent within the GDPR* Breach notification requirements* The need for a data protection officer* Geographic scope and requirements* Vendors, Outsourcing and the GDPR* Starting the compliance process* EU-US Privacy Shield* Data Protection around the worldThe author, Darren Wray, has written this book drawing upon his many years experience of implementing solutions and helping organisations become and maintain data protection regulatory requirements. The style adopted within this book means that not matter if the reader is looking to start the compliance process for a multinational enterprise, or a small organisation they will find what they're looking for.For readers from outside of the UK the book covers some of the requirements and some of the synergies that the GDPR has with other data protection around the world.
