Data Protection Officer

Fulfilling the role of a data privacy officer

It may be mandatory for your company to enlist the services of a Data Protection Officer (DPO), either as a permanent member of your staff, or as an external service. It may instead be your company’s choice to ensure that the roles and responsibilities of a DPO are fulfilled, even if you are not required to do so by law.

As most companies fall into one of these two categories, individuals qualified to serve as an in-house DPO are in high demand. In addition, the scope of the work is monumental and the regulatory landscape diverse. Under these circumstances, outsourcing is an attractive option.

Our data protection consultants are well-versed in the legal, technical and organizational aspects of data privacy regulations. We can provide you with the know-how to ensure compliance and fulfill the roles and responsibilities of a mandated Data Protection Officer. DPO consulting is one of a range of data protection services that prevent data breaches, reduce liability and prepare your company for the cyber future.
