Complying with Multiple Privacy Laws
Covered by: Risk Management
Worldwide, more than 130 different jurisdictions have introduced data privacy or data protection laws and regulations, a number that has steadily risen since enactment of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in 2018. Today, most organizations must contend with a variety of these laws, all of which have different sets of requirements and penalties to consider. All signs indicate that these regulations will continue to grow in scope, severity and complexity in the coming years. By extension, managing compliance will be increasingly difficult, especially as most organizations are attempting to do so via different, perhaps even individual programs.
