The advantages of implementing data protection in your business model

For many organisations, data protection is a necessary evil. Only what is absolutely required by law is implemented. Apart from the fact that data protection is a fundamental right, it actually brings many benefits for companies and does not have to be an innovation accelerator. 
 

Data protection builds trust. As individuals become more aware of their rights regarding privacy and the protection of personal data, it can lead to enormous reputational damages if a mismanagement of personal data occurs. It is therefore not surprising that well organised data protection measures can even help to attract customers.     

Strong data protection measures prevent fraud and cyberattacks. In addition to the personal data of customers, critical data from your company is secured as well. It is therefore also important to regularly train employees in order to ideally avoid data breaches.

Saving time and money. Even if it is often assumed that data protection measures represent an additional cost factor, the exact opposite is the case. Complying with data protection regulations saves a lot of money, as the fines imposed by supervisory authorities are getting higher and higher. And unprepared handling of a data breach can also be enormously time-consuming, as supervisory authorities and data subjects may have to be contacted individually and, in addition to fines, further requirements may follow.
