IHC magazine with Raka Roy on DIFC’s latest Data Protection Amendment

Following her participation in IHCC, our Partner Raka Roy spoke to IHC magazine (P26-27) about DIFC’s latest Data Protection Amendment on Balancing Innovation and Privacy.

The amendment was released back in September, focusing on transparency, accountability, and ethical practices while handling personal data, aligning it with international data protection standards.

The key aspects of the amendment included, prompt reporting of personal data breaches, responsible data management, ethical use of AI and autonomous systems and more.
