The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a European law that UC must adhere to. GDPR has numerous requirements for data privacy and security, many of which impact requirements for systems and applications. Developers and system integrators need to understand what the GDPR regulations are, and what they must do to comply. Failure to comply is not an option. Accordingly, security and privacy features must be developed to meet GDPR requirements. Some of those requirements, such as the right of erasure, are technically challenging. Others, including notice and consent requirements, are straightforward.

This is an introduction for developers and integrators; no code snippets or systems architectures will be discussed during this session.

Previous Knowledge

Familiarity with GDPR or its predecessor, the Data Protection Directive, would be helpful, but is not necessary.
