Government lose 26 million files of data
Laptop stolen with personal data
Stolen identity from insecure data
Headlines like these feature almost weekly in national and local media. All generated either because of ignorance of Data Protection laws or sheer carelessness in processing or handling sensitive personal information. The consequences can be devastating both for the individual affected and the organisation with whom they entrusted their personal information.
Data Protection covers every employer or organisation. Your staff, volunteers and managers who process information need to be aware of the law covering data protection. And it is not just about securing signatures nor having policies in a glossy handbook.
This session, organised by VAC, provides a stimulating and lively introduction to the topic and will equip you to return to your workplace with ideas for improving and developing existing data protection policies and procedures.
