Compliance & Regulation

GDPRCompliance

The GDPR standard (General Data Protection Regulation) is a set of legal guidelines put together by the European Union (EU) to protect their citizens’ data from unauthorized use and to give them full control over their privacy. Penetration testing is directly involved in the GDPR compliance process, as it allows organizations serving EU citizens to verify the security of their data processing systems, ensuring that they are compliant with the GDPR requirements. Our GDPR Penetration Testing Services are designed to facilitate compliance with the GDPR data security testing requirements.
