Data Protection Audit

Venue |On-site

GDPR Readiness Audit

In response to a number of clients’ concerns regarding their readiness for the new regulations we now offer a short three-day GDPR Readiness Audit including:


  • One day on-site consultation consisting of three interviews with Senior Data Protection Staff (typically your Data Protection Officer, Head of IT & one other senior manager with responsibility for compliance).
  • One day off-site document review, report generation and interview transcription
  • Half-day on site presenting your Readiness Audit Report & Recommendations to Senior Management Team

What’s different about the new regulations?

The GDPR is a sizeable directive, with three times as many articles and five times as much volume in the document. Here are some of the big changes:



  • Fines for non-compliance up to €20,000,000 or 4% of global turnover.
  • Consent can no longer be implied: it must be “freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous”.
  • Maintaining and enforcing your own organisation’s policies is now a legal requirement under the GDPR.
  • Privacy by design will be a standard in information management systems.
  • Changes to the rules about which companies must employ Data Protection Officer.
