Data Protection Audit (GDPR)
The challenge
Proving Compliance
Many companies struggle to demonstrate their compliance with Data Protection Regulations to their trading partners and customers.
Prove Your Commitment
Other than achieving ISO 27701 Certification, there is currently no other official means to verify adherence to data protection regulations such as GDPR. Companies undertaking an independent data protection audit can give a level of assurance to customers, staff, and other 3rd parties that they are meeting their regulatory obligations.
Scarcity of resources
Senior security resources with a broad range of expertise are expensive and thin on the ground. ‘Chief Information Security Officer’ or, our CISO as a Service is a way to bring in high level security expertise in a cost-effective way.
The service
A GDPR audit is a review and assessment of the adequacy of controls, policies, and procedures.
The aim of the audit is to determine if appropriate controls have been implemented to ensure compliance with the specific aspects of data protection legislation and regulations including:
- Implementation of a data protection policy and supporting policy framework
- Existence of data processing agreements with third parties
- Existence of records of processing activities
- Compliance with GDPR (and potentially other regulations)
- Data protection governance and oversight function within
BH Consulting may adapt our audit process based on the requirements of the client and the drivers behind the need for the audit
This service can be carried out remotely.
Please Note: While BH Consulting work with clients in different jurisdictions and provide advice around different regulations, such as CCPA (California), PDPA (Singapore), LGPD (Brazil), or the POPI Act (South Africa), we are based in the EU and are specialists in GDPR.
