Is your business ready for new cyber security laws?
The new Notifiable Data Breaches (NDB) scheme came into effect on 22 February 2018 to all entities which are bound by and which hold personal information under the Australian Privacy Act. Amongst other things, the NDB will require entities to assess and report any eligible data breaches.
The European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) will come into effect on 25 May 2018 and will affect every organisation which does business in the EU or handles personal information of EU citizens in any manner. While it may seem far removed from South Australian shores, the GDPR contains some new, ambitious, far-reaching and onerous rules on the use of personal data.
Business SA, in conjunction with partners Piper Alderman, CQR and HTS Consulting presented a seminar on the NDB scheme and the GDPR, to inform South Australian businesses of how critical data safety is.
The risks of being unprepared could be costly and Business SA wants to ensure that all South Australians are prepared.
Below are the recaps of what was discussed during the seminar.
