Is your business POPI Act ready?

From 1 July 2020, the majority of the Protection of Personal Information Act came into operation. This law obliges organisations to protect personal information processed by them by implementing organisational and technical measures. Organisations have until 30 June 2021 to comply with the Act – is your organisations ready?

• Join the Cloud Essentials webinar with our hosts Kelly Chalom, Head of Legal and Compliance, and Chris Hathaway, founding member of Cloud Essentials and IT risk subject matter expert, who will be discussing:

• o Key requirements of the POPI Act;

  o Some tips on what your organisation can do to start getting ready to comply; and

  o How Microsoft’s suite of products can facilitate compliance.

Chalom has developed an advanced – yet very practical – data privacy assessment and advisory workshop and a classification taxonomy workshop. The workshops are helping companies attain optimal compliance with data privacy-related legislation, including the GDPR, using the relevant Microsoft technologies and settings.

Hathaway has an extensive background in content management, migration, archiving, eDiscovery and a focus on the complexities and risks arising from the governance and compliance obligations, particularly within the realm of the current cloud services space and modern collaboration platforms like Microsoft 365.
