This has been a landmark year in data security, with regulations such as General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), MiFID ii and the forthcoming ePrivacy regulation all set to change how we think about and deal with sensitive information.

Since GDPR came into being on May 25^th 2018, there’s been a marked increase in the number of data breaches being reported to national regulators throughout Europe, as consumers awaken to the rights they hold as data subjects; to have their personal details handled responsibly, securely and consensually.

Security has to be priority in today’s data economy, and organisations have to adhere to higher data processing standards through all levels of activity if they are to satisfy the demands of cutting edge regulation.
