Hello Class and Professor. Well just off the top of my head methods that organizations use to protect and label confidential emails would be encryption. The encryption of synchronous data along with certificates. Generation of public and private keys to be encrypted at the beginning and decrypted with the recipient.
Public key cryptography allows someone to send their public key in an open, insecure channel. Having a friend’s public key allows you to encrypt messages to them. Your private key is used to decrypt messages encrypted to you.
The GDPR defines several roles that are responsible for ensuring compliance so that would mean that would be a legal requirement to have someone in charge or assigned to those roles. Data controller, data processor and the data protection officer. The data controller defines how personal data is processed and the purposes for which it is processed. The controller is also responsible for making sure that outside contractors comply.
Under GDPR, you need to know how your vendors operate including their security framework and how they manage data. Without that knowledge, you don’t know the risk they present.
