Breach Notification in the GDPR Era

Most American organizations, and many organizations operating in certain member state jurisdictions in the EU, have been dealing with breach notification for years. It’s pretty straightforward. Well, as straightforward as dealing with 50+ different breach notification laws can be. Now, however, with the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation, there may be one breach notification law to rule them all. Its requirement for quick turnaround (72 hours?), assessment of risk (“rights and freedoms”?), and potential penalties (4 percent of annual revenue?) combine to ensure everyone with EU citizen personal information in their databases is paying attention. In this virtual session, we’ll examine what the law says, how to prepare for its many requirements, and how to minimize damage should a breach occur.
