ATLANTA and LONDON, Dec. 15, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- As more data breaches occur everyday and more data privacy regulations come into force, such as EU General Data Protection Regulation, organizations are beginning to make data governance and data protection more of a priority. But as the Data Protection: Prioritizing Regulations & Guidelines research study released by Blancco Technology Group (AIM: BLTG) reveals, delayed threat detection and breach notifications could intensify the regulatory challenges of data protection. In particular, 16 percent of businesses take between one and six months to detect a security threat and 5 percent only detect a threat when notified by external parties.
While threat detection plays a vital role in helping organizations prevent data loss/theft, it's equally important for organizations to notify regulatory authorities and customers of a data breach in a timely and efficient manner. Despite the EU GDPR's requirement to notify regulatory authorities of a data breach within 72 hours, 13 percent of the surveyed IT professionals admitted it takes between one month and one year to do so. In such instances, these organizations would be in violation of the EU GDPR's breach notification requirement and could face regulatory fines of up to €20 million, or 4 percent of their global turnover, whichever is greater.
Key findings from the study include:
"The findings of our study reiterate just how important it is for organizations to manage data properly and have a sound data governance program in place," said Richard Stiennon, Chief Strategy Officer of Blancco Technology Group. "This will require organizations to be fully aware of and regularly assess every type of user data that is stored, how long that data is kept, as well as when and where data needs to be removed when users end their service or when legal requirements demand it. As so many data breaches have shown, taking too long to detect a security threat and notify both regulatory authorities and customers could not only lead to regulatory fines, but could also put organizations at the center of customer lawsuits, diminished sales and negative publicity."
Survey Methodology
The purpose of the study is to understand the level of importance organizations place on data protection regulations and industry guidelines. The survey was fielded in October 2016 to 460 IT professionals in the United States, Canada, Mexico, United Kingdom, France, Germany, India, Japan and China.
