The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) will be put into effect from 25th May 2018. While it is protocol that is EU-established, it affects all business organizations around the world which collect data about EU citizens. The Non-European organizations that provide all forms of goods and service to the EU citizens will now be in need of complying with new mandates. Any the owner of a company may this it to GDPR-compliant, recent reports have revealed that only about 2 percent of the organizations which consider themselves to be compliant are actually so, in relations to the specific provisions of GDPR.

The research reports also unveiled that 48 percent of the companies claiming to be GDPR-ready had no required visibility in terms of data loss in case of personal incidents. As much as 61 percent of the group said that they have had problems in recognizing and reporting incidents in a span of 72 hours since a breach, as that is mandatory if a risk crops up as a threat to data subjects.
