Debbie Reynolds “The Data Diva” talks to  Kashta Graham, Chief Executive Officer of  We Manage Trust (Jamaica). We discuss the importance of data privacy and protection, emphasizing the need for ongoing monitoring and evaluation in data governance. We also highlight the challenges small and medium-sized businesses face in managing data protection and privacy, proposing outsourcing data protection officer services. The conversation delves into the challenges posed by the rapid evolution of AI on data privacy and protection, emphasizing the need for businesses to adapt to changing laws and regulations.

The discussion focused on the nuances of data protection assessments and regulations in different jurisdictions, particularly focusing on the EU, Jamaica, China, and the UAE. We explore the varying levels of enforcement and the potential compliance gap for data controllers in Jamaica conducting business with the EU. Additionally, we highlight the enforcement muscle of certain jurisdictions, such as China and the UAE, in contrast to the yet-to-be-seen enforcement in Jamaica. The episode emphasizes the need for a culture shift, educating prospective clients about the commitment required for data protection programs, and the importance of prioritizing human behavior and education in shaping a world where privacy and data protection are upheld as fundamental principles. And Kashta’s hope for Data Privacy in the future.
