With the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and ISO 27701 Privacy Information Management System, the European Union has set the rules and become the focal point of the global dialogue on individual data privacy. EU law protects all personal data, regardless of who collects it or how it is processed. The ISO/IEC 27701:2019 standard is the first international privacy standard, which outlines the requirements for implementing a Privacy Information Management System (PIMS) to govern personal data, called Personal Identifiable Information (PII) in ISO 27701. Part I of the ISO 27701 course starts with an introduction to ISO 27701 and underlying fundamental concepts.

The course learnings include knowledge about driving factors, the need for ISO 27701, the relationship between various ISO standards e.g., ISO 27701, ISO 27001, and ISO 27002, controllers, processors, and comparison with GDPR.

This interactive training course will ensure professionals and practitioners at all levels understand their roles and responsibilities, new developments, resources, and hallmarks of an effective compliance program. In this course, you will be asked to read through lessons, participate in learning activities, and partake in knowledge checks designed to reinforce learning, followed by the end of the course final assessment.
