IT’s Role in Supporting Global Privacy Compliance

While privacy programs are typically driven by stakeholders in legal and compliance, the requirements, resources, policies, processes and technologies involved with data privacy compliance often cross over with Information Technology (IT).

This guide will share some of the common questions IT teams are now facing—or should be asking—in order to support a stronger data privacy compliance position for existing laws and a rapidly changing landscape.
