When does an organization need to conduct DPIA in GDPR?

Data Protection Impact Assessment is a mandate under the GDPR Regulation. Organizations are required to annually conduct DPIA assessments to evaluate the risk exposure and the impact that it may have on sensitive data.

 DPIA is an important part of an organization’s cyber security and privacy program. However, not all organizations are required to conduct a DPIA assessment. Only organizations that are believed to process data that may result in a high risk to data subject rights or freedom will require conducting DPIA.

For that let us first understand the general DPIA rule in the GDPR Regulation.
