The two day event Indian Data Protection Summit 2024 came to a successful conclusion with the valedictory function where Dr Bharat Panchal of Bhima Sugam gave the valedictory address. Mr Abhishek Solanki, senior scientist from CERT-In was a gues of honour along with Mr Yashvantha Kumar of Cyber Crime Division Bangalore and Dr A Nagaratna of NLSUI.
During the two days, more than 56 speakers participated in the program including 13 from outside the country. The 8 key notes, 7 panel discussions and 4 Focus Group discussions made the conference a wholesome event. With an excellent organizational support from the KLE, and special efforts of Suresh Balepur, and Ashok Kini, managing the hospitality, the event was memorable.
The publication of the book “DGPSI-The Perfect Prescription for DPDPA compliance” during the event marked a significant development of FDPPI’s efforts to facilitate DPDPA compliance in the industry. Hopefully this would also be a significant milestone in the development of Data Protection Compliance in India.
The set of these twin books would server the purpose of providing the information on Privacy as a Fundamental right, the DPDPA as an act, the Governance aspects related to Data protection and the practitioner’s guide for implementation and audit. Though the rules are yet to be notified for DPDPA, the DGPSI booklet serves presently as a Jurisprudential exposition that tries to identify how each of the DPDPA provisions may be implemented.
A detailed report of the event will be available later and the registered delegates would also get a link to the videos to be published virtually.
