Why such a fuss

What is a Data Controller and what is a Data Processor?  

 

These are two key roles within the GDPR and it is important to understand which role your organisation fulfils to determine and understand your legal obligations. 

In some instances you might be fulfilling both roles, and so it's essential to be aware what your business obligations are under one role and what your business obligations are under the other.

I will also be talking about what agreements must be in place between a controller and a processor.

What should you do if you have a data breach?

James and I are discussing what actions an organisation should be taking in the event of a data breach.  Such as consider whether the data impacted was personal data and if so the categories of data, are you the controller or the processor, what type of data breach it was, was the breach intentional or unintentional.  Assessing the impact of the data breach to establish if it is reportable to the ICO, how was the breach discovered will help an organisation to identify weaknesses. The importance of having an incident response plan and keeping a record of the incident and much more.

The first covers the IT provider CTS who provides IT system to conveyancing firms which has suffered a cyber-attack, and a large number of conveyancing solicitors are unable to access the data and therefore complete the required legal transaction as part of buying and selling properties.  Leaving a lot of homeowners in limbo delaying the process and disappointing many of their clients that they won’t be in their new home before Xmas.
