Privacy, Data Protection and Security - Where to Start

Speakers:
Christiane Vandepitte,  Business Analyst & Freelance Journalist
Guy Kindermans, Information and Communication Technology Journalist

As a Business Analysis Professional, you are involved in the design of business software applications and business processes. You must consider
many aspects, and one of them is privacy. Businesses and other organisations must be careful with the personal data they register. There are rules for
collecting, storing, using, sharing, and deleting personal data.

Does this apply to you?
Does your business process handle personal data?
How does the processing work? Where are the records? Are they copied and sent to other places?
Does the IT team provide adequate security?

Different regions of the world enforce different privacy laws and regulations. Which of these apply to your data?
What if different laws from different regions apply? For instance, the General Data Protection
Regulation (GDPR) applies to personal data of both citizens and residents of
the European Union, even if the data are used and/or stored by a company
from the USA.

What should you do?
hat should you avoid doing?
What preventive action can you take?
