The EU is getting serious on GDPR compliance – with fines for companies willfully mismanaging information having reached €200 million according to the GDPR Enforcement Tracker Report. These risks mean that companies urgently need to take steps to get serious about protecting their data.
Connecting Software’s Truth Enforcer can help you do just that – enabling you to accurately verify and thus protect sensitive data without ever compromising privacy.
This article goes over the requirements set out by GDPR, as well as the ways Truth Enforcer can help organizations, both large and small, with their regulatory obligations.
The structure and consequences of GDPR and Article 5
GDPR is the EU's flagship data privacy regulation – designed to place strict guardrails on companies collecting data. Among its less well-known provisions is one that covers large scale data migrations. Article 5 of GDPR requires that when data is migrated, businesses take care to ensure the integrity and verifiability of the data, to ensure none of it is manipulated or altered.
Truth Enforcer is designed to respond to this specific need – a product that, out of the box, can certify that a document has not been altered.
How? Truth Enforcer locks the document's content with a “digital seal” or unique hash stored on the blockchain which can be verified at will. This permanent hash will always indicate if even the smallest element of a file has been changed – meaning that verification on Truth Enforcer will always ensure that you are looking at the authentic version.
This is critical for data migrations, where a host of human and technical errors can come into play. Utilizing Truth Enforcer gives decision makers a critical peace of mind when executing migrations like these.
Truth Enforcer has a host of use-cases like these and can be a critical step to ensuring data integrity and verification.
