The EU General Data Protection Regulation comes into force in May 2018 - but only a minority will be able to meet this deadline. Even of the companies that are dealing with the GDPR, only 19% assume that they will have fully implemented the requirements of the regulation by then.
A further 20 percent expect that they will fulfill the requirements for the most part, according to the results of a representative Bitkom survey.
"Anyone who buries their head in the sand will soon be breaking the law and risking severe fines"
says Susanne Dehmel, Bitkom Managing Director for Legal & Security.
