  • Author(s) / Creator(s)
  • In recent times, ensuring data and user privacy has been one of the biggest impediments in information technology. With the advent of high penalties for privacy breaches and the high risk of reputation loss for a corporation, the need to comply with privacy regulations have never been greater. This paper talks about the growing importance of data privacy and penalties imposed on organizations due to recent data breaches that compromised the confidentiality of users. Additionally, privacy regulations PIPEDA and GDPR are discussed along with leveraging COBIT 2019 framework to ensure PIPEDA and GDPR compliance. Finally, an audit caselet is developed to help aspiring auditors design a PIPEDA and GDPR compliant audit checklist under the COBIT 2019 framework.
