What is a GDPR Gap Analysis?

A GDPR Gap Analysis is a comprehensive assessment of an organization's existing data protection practices, policies, and procedures in relation to the requirements set forth by the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). This analysis aims to identify areas where your organization may be falling short of legal obligations, reducing the risk of costly fines and unpleasant legal consequences.

Why Do You Need a Data Protection Audit?

A Data Protection Gap Analysis is essential for several compelling reasons:

Legal Compliance: A gap analysis helps to ensure that the organization adheres to its legal obligations under GDPR.
Risk mitigation: By addressing compliance gaps early, you proactively reduce the risk of data breaches and legal consequences, protecting your organization and its stakeholders.
Demonstrating Accountability: Hiring an expert to conduct a Gap Analysis demonstrates your commitment to being accountable for the personal data you process as well as your dedication to respecting individuals' privacy rights and maintaining ethical data handling practices.
