Why do you need SIRO training?
Undertaking SIRO information and training helps you to:
- Fulfil your responsibilities as a Senior Information Risk Owner
- ensure that people who work for you know how to work within Data Protection legislation and without risks to the organisation
- develop a positive Information Governance culture, where compliant data handling becomes second nature to everyone
- meet your legal duty to protect the personal information that you hold
- ensure that everyone is aware of their personal responsibility to exercise good judgement, and to safeguard and share information appropriately.
Effective SIRO training will
- enable you to understand how the strategic business goals of the organisation may be impacted by any information risks, and how to take steps to mitigate them
- help your organisation understand and avoid a data breach
- help you avoid the financial costs of a data breach and associated costs such as civil damage claims, lost confidence and ICO investigations
- contribute towards making your employees competent in GDPR and Data Protection requirements.
The law
The GDPR and Data Protection Act 2018 requires you to provide a compliant environment to handling personal data.
This is expanded by the ICO who emphasise the need for a SIRO to advocate and lead in the provision of a robust Data Protection culture and training, ensuring it is embedded in the organisation, e.g. when people start working with you, on exposure to new or increased privacy risks and where existing Data protection applications may have become casual or processes and knowledge need updating.
SIROs have responsibility for understanding how the strategic business goals of the organisation may be impacted by any information risks, and for taking steps to mitigate them. There are some regulations that include a specific SIRO input, e.g. when you need to meet the standards in the NHS DSP Toolkit.
