Demands for higher security and transparency have recently led organisations to be more diligent in implementing information security by design. At the same time, the concept of a data taxonomy is gaining momentum in organisations.

Despite significant differences between the two concepts, there is often a strong temptation to look for a ‘silver bullet’ that will address all their challenges with protecting and sharing personal data.

This webinar is aimed at anyone considering building a standard-based data taxonomy. It will explain why such approaches can cause more harm than good and what you should do instead.

Join us to learn what impact a data taxonomy can have on your organisation’s data privacy compliance strategies, how it affects your ability to share information and support decision-making, and why you could be better off focusing your attention on methods that take purpose and context of processing activity into account.

If you are a member of ISACA, ICA or The Security Institute, you can earn CPE/CPD points for attending our webinars live. Remember to log your attendance with your provider to be credited.
