In short, GDPR has an international impact on how businesses manage and protect their EU related information and data assets. Lack of compliance could lead to significant sanctions of up to 4% of worldwide turnover, based on the previous financial year.
The survey sample we conducted in May 2017 is intended to assess the general readiness of businesses in relation to meeting the compliance requirements of GDPR, as we approach the May 2018 enforcement deadline. The following report presents the results we collected along with our analysis of those results, and our recommendations on steps businesses can take to better prepare for GDPR enforcement day.
