The course "Data Security & Compliance" deals with the basic principles of data law, especially data protection and data security, and the full compliance of the digital company management. It addresses legal questions in national and European jurisdiction and legislation as well as the link between law and technical challenges.
The main focus of the course is to develop a legal awareness and understanding of relevant and common questions related to the digital economy. The course content will be to some extent taught on the basis of plausible case law. The focal point of the course is a practical approach on the relevant legal question. With that in mind you should be able to have a legal sense and the skills to judge basic legal problems related to the digital economy at the end of the course.
This course is offered in the part-time Master of Digital Transformation Management program and may be attended on a “no-credit” basis by individuals not enrolled in the program. Course participants are visitors who are not responsible for assignments and do not take an exam. As the number of seats in the course is limited, we recommend to register online early.

There are two main things which make returning for Open Programs such a valuable and worthwhile experience. The first is being back on campus – meeting the current students, returning to campus again, the whole experience was just so pleasant. The second is the level of quality in the courses – the faculty teaching are absolute experts.
