The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) recently went into effect, yet many multinational companies are still behind the compliance curve.

This sweeping regulation requires organizations to meet stringent data protection requirements affecting the personal data of EU citizens and for the first time, also impacts companies that are based outside of Europe. With severe penalties in play - fines of up to €20m or 4% of global annual revenues - corporations must implement actionable and efficient strategies to achieve compliance.
