Data must be protected across your organisation, that’s from your decision-makers and heads of department to your general staff. After all, what’s the point of applying data protection/POPIA safeguards and controls if the people actually processing your data are mismanaging it?
The most practical way to tackle this problem is by helping your employees learn with Michalsons eLearning practical solutions.
