"See you in court? New EU cyber security data protection laws with court action and mega-fines are near. Is data 'mobility' even riskier? Will Brexit change things?"

The EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is the first refresh of EU data protection law in 20 years and with it comes some eye-opening changes, including huge penalties (fines up to €20m and court actions) for cyber breaches, mandatory reporting of cyber breaches within 72 hours (yes, 72 hours not days!) and any ‘company or individual’ that processes your data will be held responsible for its protection, including third parties, such as cloud service providers. Put simply, anyone who touches or has access to your data, wherever they are based, is responsible in the case of a data breach. As such, third parties will need to be extra vigilant when it comes to securing the data of others, and data owners will need to thoroughly vet their partners.  Many market firms are already building multi-layer IT cyber security defences, with in-built GDPR reporting…but what impact will Brexit have?  Leading market, cyber security, storage solutions and legal experts explore these important issues and will outline the EU’s GDPR timetable. 

Yes, if you’re a IT, finance officer, CIO, business analyst, project manager, risk, regulatory, compliance, broker or underwriting professional in the Lloyd's and London insurance market, who wish to extend their understanding of this important and emerging risk and compliance landscape.
