In Taiwan, the primary legislation governing data protection is the Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA). Its main objective is to safeguard individuals' privacy rights by regulating personal data collection, processing, and use. The PDPA ensures that personal data is managed responsibly and securely, protecting individuals from potential misuse and unauthorized access.
Initially introduced in 1995, the PDPA was enacted in 2010 and has since provided a comprehensive framework for protecting personal data. The Enforcement Rules of the Personal Data Protection Act (ERPDPA) further clarify the interpretation and implementation of the PDPA.
The latest amendments to the PDPA were implemented on May 31, 2023, including updates to Article 48 of the PDPA concerning security obligation violations and establishing an independent supervisory mechanism. Moreover, the competent regulatory authority is the Personal Data Protection Commission (PDPC) and it collaborates with the Ministry of Justice to enforce the PDPA.
Securiti enables organizations to comply with Taiwan’s PDPA through AI-driven PI data discovery, DSR automation, documented accountability, enhanced visibility into data processing activities, and AI-driven process automation.
Securiti supports enterprises in their journey toward compliance with Taiwan’s PDPA through automation, enhanced data visibility, and identity linking.
