Data Compliance Audits

Under the new EU General Data Protection Regulation, that came into force on 25th May 2018, the responsibility is now on organisations to adhere to the principle of Accountability and be able to “demonstrate compliance” with the GDPR. There is potential for reputational damage to any business who fail to comply with the new regulations, not to mention huge fines as well.

The best way to “demonstrate compliance” with the GDPR is to outsource your risk assessment and an annual compliance audit to our professional team.

We will discuss this in detail with you and your key people, and provide steps to help you move towards compliance, where areas of high risk or shortfalls have been identified. Our team will work alongside you to ensure practical solutions are carried out to address the risks identified.
