USA Big Tech encouraged to adopt GDPR-style rules
The multinational tech conglomerate, Cisco Systems has urged tech companies in the US to embrace more regulation and to follow the example of the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
The group’s chief legal and compliance officer, Mark Chandler, has said regulation is now due; his calls add volume to the demands being made on US politicians to increase scrutiny and power over tech companies, against a backdrop of increasing global awareness of the importance of data security.
