An Agile Approach to GDPR Implementation within a Further Education College

EasyChair Preprint no. 100

Abstract

The General Data Protection Regulation sees a fundamental shift in the way in which data is handled, stored and distributed. Massive uncertainty exists due to the UKs proposed exit of the European Union and this has resulted in a complacent, ignorant attitude to the changes within a large number of UK businesses and public sector organizations. This paper explores the impact of the GDPR, it’s relation and changes from the 1998 Data Protection Act and the intentions of the UK government. In addition, a proposal for a software solution to manage a number of aspects of Data Protection within a Further Education College is discussed along with a report on its implementation. Discussion of the techniques and tools used to create the software solution and to manage the GDPR implementation using Agile Methodologies and Tools is featured.
