Description

Applying the GDPR to the Cloud

The GDPR was enforced on 25 May 2018, superseding the 1995 Data Protection Directive and all its local implementations. The Regulation brings a 21st-century approach to data protection, introducing new, stricter requirements for organisations and expanding the rights of data subjects.

An expert introduction

More than 81% of organisations have now adopted the Cloud in some form compared to only 24% in 2014, according to the 2018 Bitglass Cloud Adoption Report, and it’s showing no signs of slowing. However, moving data to the Cloud does not solve security problems – it adds another element that needs addressing.

The pocket guide discusses the GDPR requirements relating to Cloud sourcing and the risks attached. With a view to helping managers ask the right questions, this book aims to help you learn how to meet your data protection obligations when using Cloud services.

This guide explains:

How to mitigate security risks in the Cloud to comply with Article 32 of the GDPR;

How to comply with Chapter V of the GDPR when transferring data to third countries;
