Simplifying Data Protection Compliance in the EU

Protecting data is a big deal for many industries in the European Union (EU), especially after the introduction of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in 2018. The GDPR sets strict rules for how organizations handle personal data, and not following them can result in hefty fines and legal issues.

However, achieving data protection compliance is a complex task involving technical, organizational, and legal challenges. Questions arise, such as how to secure and manage data, monitor processing activities, and demonstrate compliance to regulators and the public.

To tackle these challenges, AesirX and Concordium have joined forces to offer a comprehensive solution: AesirX Privacy Scanner & Privacy Monitoring Service.
