In this episode of InfoSec Insider – Talk DP, Stuart Skelly, a Senior GRC Consultant at URM, explains records of processing activities (ROPAs), a key document that almost every organisation must create and maintain in order to comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).  Stuart leverages his 25+ years of specialisation in data protection law to discuss: 

  • What a ROPA is, which organisations need to have one  
    • The advantages of having a ROPA in place and how this can benefit your GDPR compliance efforts  
      • Who within an organisation needs to create the ROPA 
        • The challenges associated with producing a ROPA and how these can be overcome 
          • Whether you should first produce a data flow map before embarking on the ROPA 
            • The next steps after the ROPA has been built.
