Compliance and best practice by implementing relevant standards
There has never been a more vital time to understand the importance of keeping your information safe. How do you know if your current practice is good practice?
Today, every organization produces, digests, stores and transmits vast amounts of information, creating new opportunities to deliver value to the business and its customers. But for an organization to operate effectively, it needs to have the right information in the right place at the right time while also reducing the risks to the business associated with the misuse, theft, loss and indiscriminate dissemination of data - especially when it comes to personal information.
The Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) will gain new powers to conduct compulsory audits - if it suspects that any breach of the Data Protection Act has occurred - and will be able to levy a penalty of up to £500,000 should wrongdoing be proven.
BSI’s Data Protection Conference will provide you with an insight into Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) new powers of audit and penalty and how standards can help you in managing compliance in achieving effective and lawful information governance.
