In May of next year, the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) will go into effect. GDPR has been the biggest privacy topic of discussion of the past year, with organizations across the globe doing business in the EU working to become compliant with these new obligations throughout this past year. However, many are not fully compliant yet, and some have yet to begin any GDPR preparation at all.In this session, Gant Redmon, IBM Resilient’s privacy expert, will give an overview of the impact GDPR will have on organizations that are not compliant. Specifically, he will dive into what incident responders will need to know about the regulation and the impact on their day-to-day jobs. With GDPR in effect, senior leaders within organizations will suddenly be relying on incident responders for much more given the enormous potential penalties. Questions from senior executives like, “what was in that data?” will be asked frequently. Gant’s session will focus on what incident responders can expect to be able to provide their organization with under GDPR, and how they can work with the legal and C-Suite teams to stay ahead of any GDPR-related penalties.Attendees will get actionable takeaways on how to best prepare for and respond to any incidents that could trigger GDPR action. Gant will also dive into how incident responders can get ahead of these burning questions, so that they are prepared when the higher-ups ask, “what was in that data?”
