UK GDPR & Data Protection Act 2018

The UK's data-protection regime — requiring appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal data.

All frameworks

Who's in scope

Any organisation processing the personal data of UK individuals.

What it requires

  • Implement appropriate technical and organisational security measures.
  • Detect, and where required report, personal-data breaches promptly.
  • Be able to demonstrate accountability for your security posture.

How TrustQuant helps

  • Continuous checks on encryption, access controls and exposure that underpin 'appropriate measures'.
  • Evidence trails that support accountability and breach-readiness.
  • Privacy-by-design collection — we read security metadata, never your data content.
