GDPR Certification Exam

1 - It is my intention to write the GDPR Certification Exam the end of this Month.

I trust that this will create the Environment that will enable me to write both ISO 27001 Lead Implementor and Lead Auditor Exams.

GDPR certification is not enough to cover all necessary knowledge for ISO 27001 Lead Implementor and Lead Auditor Exams (normally the certification path is the other way around).

Please note that GDPR defines requirements for privacy protection, while ISO 2700 provides requirements for information security in general, so ISO 27001 is more comprehensive, and someone needs more knowledge before going for ISO 27001 Lead Implementor and Lead Auditor Exams.

2 - I would really appreciate any Communications regarding progress on Creation of Advisers POPIA Content and an opportunity to present same to a number of Corporate and Government Clients in our portfolio.

Please be assured of my commitment to broadening my ISO Certifications based upon the Advisers offerings

We have POPIA (the South African law for data protection and privacy) in our product pipeline for development, but not for at least the next twelve months.
