In fact, any department that touches or uses customer data (and let&#8217;s face it, which department doesn&#8217;t these days) will have to ensure compliancy.<\/p>\n<p>So, to that end, Kaspersky Lab commissioned a report to look at how different internal departments inside most businesses feel about GDPR. The findings make interesting reading.<\/p>\n<p>According to the report, 67% of those polled are concerned about personal data being hacked or breached, with a further 55% of correspondence saying they feel that their own personal data would be looked after securely.<\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.kaspersky.com\/files\/2017\/05\/gdpr2-pic-1.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-16927\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.kaspersky.com\/files\/2017\/05\/gdpr2-pic-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"940\" height=\"888\" \/><\/a> <\/p>\n<p>Another telling statistic is that 50% of businesses feel they&#8217;re prepared for GDPR. The other half of those polled don&#8217;t feel ready for GDPR. That&#8217;s a hugely concerning number, considering just how important it is.<\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.kaspersky.com\/files\/2017\/05\/gdpr2-pic-2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-16928\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.kaspersky.com\/files\/2017\/05\/gdpr2-pic-2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"940\" height=\"556\" \/><\/a> <\/p>\n<p>Yet, despite all the doom and gloom, a lot of IT decision makers are seeing it as a positive \u2013 a chance to enact real change within their organisation and that shows in our poll, with 63% of those polled saying that GDPR will enable them to create better data rules inside their business.
