"If you are only in the GDPR awareness stage (more about that below) when you read this, you’ll pretty likely be “too late” to become GDPR compliant by May 25th, 2018. Yet, that date is not the end. After reading this interview you’ll understand why, what you need to do and why in reality you can’t really be fully “GDPR-ready”"

"There are several reasons why the GDPR is first and foremost a strategic business challenge. One of them is that, despite the fact we’re an information management and IT company, we always start from business challenges. And that corresponds with the market reality: today most challenges de facto come from the business instead of from IT. A project needs a solid business case and as a company you try to respond to it with partners and solutions.
"If you don’t have an overall strategy to begin with, you can’t demonstrably prove that you tried to do what you had to and have a plan of action going forward."
"What management needs to do, however, is make sure that all employees are aware of the GDPR and what it means for their work: explaining what the GDPR is, what is coming their way as a consequence, how they are supposed to deal with it and, importantly, that they are not alone in all of it."
"Iven if it’s just the first step, the awareness stage is very important."
"In that second stage, assessment and methodology, you first conduct a thorough risk analysis and look at everything: your people, your information management and other processes, your technologies and so forth."
"On top of the fact that you started a project you can now show that 1) your staff has been educated and has started thinking about how to deal with information and 2) you have a documented plan that shows you know where you are, where you go and which actions you took and will take."
"The third and final stage is the implementation stage where you effectively start the projects which you found in your analysis and defined in your plan. This also means that you’ll need to monitor and evaluate if what you wanted to achieve has been achieved, how you can optimize the project if needed and move on with the next project."
"Privacy by design is indeed a key element of the GDPR and the regulation also says that systems and new applicators by default need to support it. In practice this means that your platforms, information management systems and others, at least need to be able to support a security model whereby only people who really need access to personal data, get it do their job."
"You need to map your entire system and authorization structure and ask yourself if you know who has access to a specific folder today."
"That brings us to records management. According to the GDPR, you shouldn’t retain information longer than necessary so that means you need to have a retention plan."
"The right of erasure requires records management and the design of retention schemes to delete personal information"
"Automatic classification of your full information landscape, including the identification of PII on the deepest level, brings you close to GDPR complian"
