ISDP©10003 certification for GDPR compliance assessment
Data Protection - GDPR certification scheme accredited in accordance with EN ISO/IEC 17065:2012.
WHAT IS ISDP10003 AND WHY?
The ISDP©10003 certification scheme, accredited by Accredia, arose from the need to assess compliance with the GDPR.
The scheme defines the general requirements and controls for demonstrating GDPR compliance under EU Regulation 2016/679 of the processing of personal data that the owner and manager performs as part of the products, processes, and services, implemented or otherwise provided.
Special attention is paid in the new 2020 version to the nature, context and risk of processing operations carried out, in Europe and also outside the European Union.
In fact, the same was developed as part of a broader compliance framework provided by the new European regulation on the processing of personal data, based on the principle of accountability and protection of fundamental rights.
The object of certification also invokes the detailed analysis of the treatments as key elements, data, processes and technical infrastructure that are being audited.
New features introduced by the 2020 version..
Among the new features introduced by the new version of the scheme is a greater definition of the scope, especially of the two scopes of application as defined by the GDPR and well clarified in EDPB Guidelines 1/2018:
a general scope in relation to the compliance of data controllers and processors under Article 42 (1) of EU Regulation 2016/679 as stated in footnote 1 of §1.2 Scope.
A specific scope, in relation to the compliance of products, processes, or services of the owners and managers as indicated in footnote 2,3,4 of §1.2 Scope
- Introduction of 24 new controls determined by the review and/or approval of new guidelines crucial for assessing compliance, particularly with regard to the principles of transparency and fairness, risk management, and the exercise of data subject rights.
- Definition of the interoperability principle in §70 EDPB Guidelines 1/2018 Table of interrelation between §49 EDPB Guidelines 1/2018 and Macroprocesses of the scheme
- An important definition of how to conduct audits and definition of findings ("shall," "should," "may" according to ISO/IEC 17065:2012).
- Better framing and definition of risk management particularly of Ra or acceptable risk and Ri or inherent risk
- Insertion of Annex B or correlation table between requirements and controls of the scheme and articles and recitals of the GDPR.
