The GDPR highlights the problem in EU’s Cyber Posture
The EU’s current cyber posture focuses on data privacy, data sharing, data integrity, and data usage in cyberspace. However, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) poses challenges and has unintended consequences for businesses. It has led to decreased profits and sales for some companies, particularly small and medium enterprises. Additionally, GDPR has hindered processes like data-sharing during the COVID-19 crisis. The EU’s cyber posture requires significant resources and regulations to be effective, but it limits the development of an ecosystem that can address various problems through digital integration.
Key Points:
- The EU’s cyber posture prioritizes data privacy, sharing, integrity, and usage.
- The GDPR has inspired other countries to adopt similar frameworks but poses challenges for businesses.
- GDPR has led to decreased profits for companies and hindered data-sharing during the COVID-19 crisis.
- The EU’s cyber posture requires significant resources but limits the development of an ecosystem that can address problems through digital integration.
