Beyond GDPR security training: Turning regulation into opportunity

The formal risk is obvious: GDPR fines can reach up to €20 million or 4% of global annual turnover. The informal one is quieter but often far more damaging: lost trust, declining customer loyalty, and disrupted operations. In 2024, European regulators issued fines exceeding €1.2
