Data Security

Data protection law requires that personal information must be held and used securely.  Recent headlines have shown that organisations are not doing enough to ensure the security of people’s personal data.  It is not always obvious what measures should be taken by organisations to comply with the legal obligations.

This session examines the law as it relates to data security, and the practical steps that organisations need to take to ensure compliance with their obligations.  It concentrates on how to avoid data security breaches, but also looks at what can be done to mitigate the effects of any breach that does occur.  The session considers the practical implications of the recommendations of various government and other reports on the security of data.

Key aspects of this session include:

  • analysis of the legal requirements for keeping the personal information secure
  • the Data Protection Commissioner’s recommendations and latest guidance
  • the data security implications of using 3rd parties to process personal information, such as external contractors and outsourced service providers
  • examination of the powers of the Data Protection Commissioner and other legal and commercial consequences of data security breaches
  • managing a data security breach - law and best practice
  • laptop and portable media encryption - when it is required
  • informing individuals and notifying the Commissioner about data security breaches - what is required and how to go about it
  • confinement strategies to prevent further dissemination of lost or stolen data

Delegates will learn about the practical steps that can be taken in their organisation to avoid the adverse consequences that can arise from data security incidents.
