GDPR

Regulation governing lawful processing, rights and controls for personal data.

GDPR is the regulation that governs processing of personal data. It applies to any system or service that collects, stores or uses identifiable personal information.

Operationally it creates requirements around lawful bases, data subject rights, retention and records of processing. It drives technical and procedural changes: enforcing access controls, minimising data, retaining and deleting records, and reporting breaches where required.

GDPR: access and security controls

Requirements for restricting access, managing privileges and enforcing authentication and authorisation to protect personal data under GDPR.

GDPR audit evidence and records

Gather and keep logs, reports and records that show processing, access and security controls to support GDPR audits.

GDPR: data protection, classification and handling

Controls for protecting, classifying, transferring and retaining personal data under GDPR.

GDPR governance and compliance

Clarifies accountability, applicable policies and evidence required to demonstrate and record GDPR compliance.

Where GDPR fits

GDPR touches identity services, application databases, backups, logs and integrations with third‑party processors. Any flow containing personal identifiers needs to be identified and assessed.

You must consider GDPR when choosing controls and designing data flows. That means being clear who is responsible, what access looks like, how long data is kept and what contractual or technical controls exist with suppliers.
