Many Orgs Face GDPR Noncompliance Without a Data Protection Officer - Infosecurity Magazine
Reported by infosecurity-magazine.com
While the IT industry is preparing for the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), some organizations are still struggling with staffing for it—about a fifth (22%) haven’t yet hired a data protection officer (DPO).
That’s according to Imperva, in a survey of 310 IT security professionals taken at the Infosecurity Europe 2017 trade show. The firm also found that 52% of those that don’t have a DPO aren’t planning on hiring one until the second half of 2018 or beyond—after GDPR enforcement commences.
