In the previous chapter, we explored business fraud and service abuses. In this chapter, we will talk more about GDPR case studies. The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) has set an enforcement date; May 25, 2018. Any organization that has not complied with data protection rules by this date may face heavy fines. This chapter will take the GDPR compliance as a case study to apply to software development. It discusses the GDPR software security requirements it should include in coming releases. We will also explore some practical case studies, such as personal data discovery, data anonymization, cookie consent, data-masking implementation, and web privacy status.
We will cover the following topics in this chapter:
- GDPR security requirement
- Case studies
