The Data Protection world is changing so protecting your data goes into the heart of SRA and ICO Data Protection compliance. Anything that suggests legal sector data controllers do not have adequate data protection controls around your client data, as required under Principle 7 of the Data Protection Act, will cut across SRA compliance requirements and leave you liable for enforcement action for non-compliance.
Under the new DPA legislation many legal firms will soon find themselves having to employ a data protection officer, report breaches and improve consent requirements under the new regulations.
