Over the past two years the PII environment has changed exponentially. With the introduction of General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) from the European Union and its enforcement beginning on May 2018, the importance of data protection collected from organizations for a variety of reasons is becoming the utmost objective of each organization and involved individuals.
Without a doubt, the business growth in the modern world drives up the amount of collected personal data from organizations for different purposes. As a result, there is a need for organizations to develop an enhanced system to manage the collection of data, based on the premises of General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

The ISO has developed and approved the ISO 27701: 2019: Personal Information Management System (PIMS), to protect the much needed Personal Identifiable Information (PII). (See the video)
