Course description
Data protection is the process of safeguarding important information from corruption, compromise or loss. The importance of data protection increases as the amount of data created and stored continues to grow at unprecedented rates. Consequently, a large part of a data protection strategy is ensuring that data can be restored quickly after any corruption or loss. Protecting data from compromise and ensuring data privacy are other key components of data protection.
The Managing Data Protection Compliance course is made of two units: First: Data Protection Compliance — covers the fundamental concepts of data protection law including key definitions and the data protection principles, and looks at basic measures organisations can take to comply with relevant parts of the legislation. Second: Applying Data Protection Law in Practice — builds on the unit above to develop knowledge about how to apply the legal requirements in a practical setting.
This covers a range of complex scenarios and introduces good practice set out in relevant codes of practice, as well as how the use of information governance tools can facilitate compliance.
