Businesses around the world are shifting their approaches to data security, with the effective date of the European Unions (EU) General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), set for May 25, 2018.

Forresters GDPR episode of the What It Means podcast is worth a listen and the GDPR Report is a great place to learn about various new laws under the Right to be Forgotten (RTBF).
