Boost your business fitness - ICO offers new, free data protection training for SMEs
The UK's Information Commissioner's Office has launched free data protection training aimed at small and medium-sized businesses. The new resource is designed to help SMEs understand and meet their legal obligations under data protection law.
Why this matters: Most data breaches do not come from big corporations failing spectacularly. They come from small businesses that never had the time or money to figure out the rules. Free, practical training from the regulator itself is a direct way to close that gap. If you run a small business or advise one, this is worth a look before a complaint or a fine makes it mandatory.
