Data Protection in the Public Sector: Balancing Compliance and Cloud Innovations
On Thursday, May 22, Ometa is hosting an exclusive strategic session for cities and municipalities. During this session, we will address the challenges surrounding data protection in combination with Office365. We will demonstrate how Ometa approaches the complexity of data management and protection in the public sector in a different way and are eager to present this to all stakeholders.
VTC Compliant or Not?
For many cities and municipalities, it remains unclear whether they fully comply with the VTC guidelines today. “Het Digitaal Sociaal Dossier (DSD)” shows that the VTC has taken a stance, but this raises many questions, particularly for organizations working with Office365. How can you remain compliant without sacrificing efficiency and user-friendliness?
The latest VTC communication brings new challenges, particularly in terms of interpretation and practical application. How do you translate this regulation into a workable solution that provides both legal certainty and workable IT processes?
Additionally, the current political situation plays a significant role in data protection in Europe. The focus on digital sovereignty and data security is becoming stronger, with stricter requirements to keep sensitive information within European borders. How can cities and municipalities continue to innovate and digitize in a world where, with just two clicks, continental borders can sometimes be crossed when it comes to data storage (data at rest), while also complying with increasingly strict laws and regulations?
During this session, we will dive deeper into:
✅ The impact of the VTC guidelines and NIS2.0 on data protection.
✅ How to securely manage sensitive information within current laws and regulations.
✅ Ometa’s technical solution for the public sector.
✅ Practical applications for secure collaboration with structured data and archiving in DAV.
