As the E.U. General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) takes effect in 2018, companies will need to provide insight into their data processes and show they comply with the regulation. However, a recent survey found that only 36% of E.U. corporate professionals were aware of GDPR’s impact on their business. There are tough penalties for companies that fail to comply. They can face fines up to 4% of global annual revenue or €20 million, whichever is greater. What are you doing to ensure your company is compliant?
