What is the purpose of GDPR?

The General Data Protection Regulation, or GDPR for short, is an important privacy law in the EU that aims to give citizens even greater control over their personal information. The regulation was enforced on May 25th, 2018 and covers all businesses dealing with data from within the region. It also requires a best-practice approach across industries when it comes to cybersecurity – helping businesses to avoid data breaches! The law has mandated that all businesses with European customers need to fully adopt GDPR principles, including adopting adequate security strategy and technical measures in order to protect the personal data of EU citizens. The UK’s Data Protection Act covers the data protection measures via 8 principles. The legislation also focuses on creating a workflow that will reduce cyberattacks, privacy outbreaks within companies by making them more conscious about their web presence from an online perspective.
