Overview 

The rapid growth of technologies and an increasing reliance on the cyber domain has led to an alarming increase  of non-compliance with the POPI Act globally. The Cybercrimes Act is one of our initial legislations that provides for a legislative framework on data management, and as such, this webinar will discuss this legislative framework on personal information, protected in terms of the Protection of Personal Information Act and how to ensure compliance with both the Cybercrimes Act as well as POPIA, for personal data protection.
