The Impact

The world scenario is changing when we talk about personal data protection. Not that long ago, it was common to find companies that sell databases, and other companies that work with the information contained into these databases, aimed to create profiles and generate solutions, using technologies such as big data and artificial intelligence, among others, looking to be attractive and get more customers. In order to protect the privacy of citizens across the world, laws have been created and/or expanded to reinforce this protection. In Brazil, specifically, the Lei de Proteção de Dados Pessoais – LGPD [General Data Protection Law] was created. This research aims to analyze this law, as well as other laws that orbit around it. The goal is to know the impact of law enforcement on business routine and, as a specific objective, what the role of DPO (Data Protection Officer) in organizations will be.

AbstractThis chapter considers the legal framework of data protection in Russia. The adoption of the Yarovaya laws, data localization requirement, and enactment of sovereign Runet regulations allowing for isolation of the internet in Russia paint a grim representation of state control over data flows in Russia. Upon closer examination, it can be seen that the development of data protection in Russia follows many of the steps taken at the EU level, although some EU measures violated fundamental rights and were invalidated. Specific rules in this sphere in Russia are similar to the European General Data Protection Regulation. This chapter shows the special role of Roskomnadzor in forming data protection regulations by construing vaguely defined rules of legislation.

Entry into force of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data and repealing Directive 95/46/ EC (General Data Protection Regulation) significantly changed the legal situation of information security administrators. The new institution is a data protection officer. The provisions of the regulation not only changed the name but also the requirements for the person who will perform it in the organization. The main task of the DPO is to provide expert support to the controller and the processor and to monitor compliance with the provisions on personal data protection in cooperation with the supervisory authorities. The importance of the DPO’s function has been strongly emphasized in recital 97 of the preamble to the GDPR. This means that the data protection officer is the person responsible for acting in accordance with the data processing regulations. The independence of DPO is guarantee by its correct placement in the structure of the controller’s organization. As regards the employment of a DPO, the legislator left employers a large dose of freedom. Acquiring specialists dealing in the personal data protection in the company is possible by selecting several options. We can deal with the employment of a stationary specialist or an external consultant. Due to the very wide competence of the DPO, the legislator also provided for the possibility of commissioning the inspector’s tasks to a group of people or a department or an external company.

Abstract The purpose of the study is to analyze the existing requirements for personal data security and assess the impact of these requirements on the enterprises security in the Russian Federation. Research method: the problem of ensuring the security of personal data in accordance with the requirements of the Federal law of the Russian Federation FZ-152 and the international General Data Protection Regulation is investigated. The article analyzes the possible risks of interrupting the normal activities of enterprises in the Russian Federation due to violations of these requirements for personal data protection and the imposition of significant fines by international regulators. Numerical relationships are estimated between the amount of fines for violations of established requirements, including General Data Protection Regulation, and the cost of creating an effectiveness personal data protection system. Estimates of the permissible degree of influence of the General Data Protection Regulation requirements on the enterprises security in the Russian Federation are obtained. Research result: a study and comparison of possible penalties for violation of compliance with the requirements of the Federal law of the Russian Federation FZ-152 and the international General Data Protection Regulation was performed. Risk assessments of sanctions for violation of the established requirements for personal data protection were obtained. The analysis of the cost of preparing a personal data protection system for compliance with the requirements of the General Data Protection Regulation was performed. Based on the data obtained, examples of calculating the degree of maturity of the security system are presented – based on the ratio of the share of the budget allocated for security in relation to the cost of creating an effectiveness personal data protection system and based on the ratio of the amount of the fine for violation of the established requirements. The importance of accounting for the costs of personal data security to ensure the security of enterprises in the Russian Federation, taking into account the requirements of the General Data Protection Regulation, is shown

The importance of the concept of risk and risk management in the data protection field has grown explosively with the adoption of the General Data Protection Regulation (2016/679). The article explores the concept and the role of risk, as well as associated risk regulation mechanisms in EU data protection law. It shows that with the adoption of the General Data Protection Regulation there is evidence of a two-fold shift: first on a practical level, a shift towards risk-based data protection enforcement and compliance, and second a shift towards risk regulation on the broader regulatory level. The article analyses these shifts to enhance the understanding of the changing relationship between risk and EU data protection law. The article also discusses associated potential challenges when trying to manage multiple and heterogeneous risks to the rights and freedoms of individuals resulting from the processing of personal data.

The Law

Abstract In the review below the author presents a general overview of the selected contemporary legal issues related to the present growth of the aviation industry and the development of aviation technologies. The review is focused on the questions at the intersection of aviation law and personal data protection law. Massive processing of passenger data (Passenger Name Record, PNR) in IT systems is a daily activity for the contemporary aviation industry. Simultaneously, since the mid- 1990s we can observe the rapid growth of personal data protection law as a very new branch of the law. The importance of this new branch of the law for the aviation industry is however still questionable and unclear. This article includes the summary of the author’s own research conducted between 2011 and 2017, in particular his audits in LOT Polish Airlines (June 2011-April 2013) and Lublin Airport (July - September 2013) and the author’s analyses of public information shared by International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), International Air Transport Association (IATA), Association of European Airlines (AEA), Civil Aviation Authority (ULC) and (GIODO). The purpose of the author’s research was to determine the applicability of the implementation of technical and organizational measures established by personal data protection law in aviation industry entities.

The Way

The main goal of this book is to provide an understanding of what is commonly referred to as “the risk-based approach to data protection”. An expression that came to the fore during the overhaul process of the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)—even though it can also be found in other statutes under different acceptations. At its core it consists in endowing the regulated organisation that process personal data with increased responsibility for complying with data protection mandates. Such increased compliance duties are performed through risk management tools. It addresses this topic from various perspectives. In framing the risk-based approach as the latest model of a series of regulation models, the book provides an analysis of data protection law from the perspective of regulation theory as well as risk and risk management literatures, and their mutual interlinkages. Further, it provides an overview of the policy developments that led to the adoption of such an approach, which it discusses in the light of regulation theory. It also includes various discussions pertaining to the risk-based approach’s scope and meaning, to the way it has been uptaken in statutes including key provisions such as accountability and data protection impact assessments, or to its potential and limitations. Finally, it analyses how the risk-based approach can be implemented in practice by providing technical analyses of various data protection risk management methodologies.
