    • Technology

In this episode, we discuss the evolving landscape of data protection, especially in the context of India's DPDP law. Kuldeep Tomar, the Head of Information Security at Games24x7, delves into the significance of safeguarding data beyond just access control, highlighting the importance of data protection itself. He discusses how data protection is a critical facet of a Chief Information Security Officer's (CISO) responsibilities and how a robust data protection strategy can enhance an organization's ability to respond effectively to data breaches, aligning with the DPDP's mandates.

Many people think of cybersecurity as primarily controlling who has access to data. Why is it important to emphasize the protection of the data itself, beyond just access control?
How does a strong data protection strategy improve an organization's ability to respond to data breaches or security incidents as mandated by DPDP?
Discuss the importance of continuous monitoring and auditing of data access and usage, and its alignment with DPDP compliance.
DPDP encourages the principle of data minimization. Can you explain what this means and how it can be practically implemented?
For organizations with a global presence, how can they ensure compliance with DPDP when transferring data internationally, considering data sovereignty?
What are the biggest challenges companies face when it comes to complying with data privacy regulations in APAC?
What are the key challenges that companies operating in India face when it comes to complying with data privacy regulations?
How do cultural differences across APAC impact data privacy practices and regulations?
What do you anticipate happening in APAC with regards to privacy regulations or the focus on privacy for companies over the next 3-5 years?
