Overview (Program Summary)

A program hosted by:

ACC Australia

Data has become one of the most valuable assets in businesses today. Rapidly evolving methods for analysing data has enabled businesses to use data in ways that shape day-to-day decisions and operations, as well as its strategic direction. At the same time, businesses are coming under scrutiny for the ways in which it manages and governs its data, as data continues to attract increasing intervention by the regulators.

The need for effective data management and data governance practices is crucial.

Hosted by experts from Gilbert + Tobin’s Technology + Digital team, this webinar will explore the evolving regulatory focus on data practices and what that means for data governance and data management.

The webinar will cover:

  • key data compliance issues across a broad range of regulations and across the whole data lifecycle, including privacy, confidentiality, Corporations Act, financial services laws and surveillance laws; and
  • governance practices required to properly manage oversight of data, including data ethics.
