Create a robust and privacy-centric ISMS with IT Governance
Organisations need to work with Cloud platform providers to ensure that data is stored, handled, processed and transferred responsibly with due care and attention to data privacy regulations. This involves constant scrutiny and negotiation from a position of knowledge and strength to ensure best practice is applied.
The course helps you identify the non-negotiable requirements for PII in the public Cloud in the context of prevailing regulations and laws in the EU, UK and more broadly, and the obligations of a public Cloud processor. This includes the roles and responsibilities of data processors and data controllers when processing in the Cloud, and how the concept of data sovereignty applies.
You will understand how the principles of data privacy apply to PII processors and will be able to pinpoint the specific risks to PII that each control mitigates. Then, you will study the process and skill of auditing and reviewing information security in the public Cloud, using available audit techniques.
Deepen your understanding so you can use data privacy and data protection terminology confidently, analysing environments, contracts and processes with authority.
