To guarantee compliance, the NDPR includes provisions for the appointment of a Data Protection Officer (DPO) to oversee all aspects of an organization’s compliance with this legislation.
Organizations are recommended to take the technical requirements set forth by the NDPR seriously to ensure the privacy and security of user data. By adhering to these requirements, enterprises may limit the risk of data breaches and avoid the associated consequences/penalties entirely.
