The draft GDPR version has been substantially completed and has been sent out to consultation within the international identity federation community. The new version of GÉANT CoCo is more detailed than version 1 as the new legislation is more prescriptive and takes into consideration the areas of Increased Territorial Scope, Penalties, Consent, Breach Notification, Right to Access, Right to be Forgotten, Data Portability, Privacy by Design and Data Protection Officers.
