The European Union’s (EU’s) General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) goes into effect on May 25.

Enterprise mobility is a complicated, intricately interwoven set of processes and tasks. While each company handles program management differently, there are a few basics that, if handled effectively, maximise employee safety and overall success.
