Data Protection - beyond compliance

Learn about the Data Protection Trusmark launched by IMDA and the Personal Data Protection Commission in 2019.

Join us for an introduction to managing and demonstrating data protection through Data Protection Trustmark (DPTM) and ISO/IEC 27001. As organizations seek ways in which to become more resilient in the ‘next normal’, it could be the right time to take a look at DPTM and ISO/IEC 27001, and what it can deliver for you. 

Launched in 2019 by the Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA) and the Personal Data Protection Commission (PDPC) of Singapore, the DTPM is a voluntary, enterprise-wide certification that allows organizations to demonstrate accountable and responsible data protection practices.

ISO/IEC 27001 is a robust framework that helps you protect information such as financial data, intellectual property, or sensitive customer information. It helps you identify risks and puts in place security measures that are right for your business, so you can manage or reduce risks to your information.
