When the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) took effect last May, companies were seeking guidance and best practices to address their compliance challenges. Although this sense of urgency is beginning to diminish, the demand for data privacy controls will only increase as organizations across industries and geographies adjust to the post-GDPR world.
In January 2020, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) will go into effect, and Brazil’s data protection law, Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados Pessoais (LGPDP), will kick in the following month. Many of the processes and requirements — not to mention the benefits — associated with GDPR compliance will be highly relevant to organizations’ preparations for these new regulations.
