Listen "GDPR Back to Basics"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of InfoSec Insider – Talk DP, Stuart Skelly, a Senior GRC Consultant at URM, takes us ‘back to basics’ with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), breaking down the key data protection concepts and terminology you will need to understand if you want to achieve and maintain compliance with the GDPR. Stuart leverages his 25+ years of specialisation in data protection law to discuss:
What counts as ‘processing’, ‘personal data’, and who counts as a ‘data subject’ under the GDPR
The definition of ‘special category personal data’, and how requirements for processing this type of data differ
‘Data processers’ and ‘data controllers’ – what they are, and the differences between the GDPR requirements for these two types of entities
What ‘cookies’ are and how they are relevant to the GDPR.
