FICCI's Task Force on Privacy and Data Security plays a crucial role in navigating India's evolving data protection landscape. In recent years, India has been enhancing its regulatory framework to align with global standards, notably with the recently released Digital Personal Data Protection Act. These legislations aim to safeguard personal data, promote privacy, and govern its usage across sectors. The Task Force is pivotal in this context, serving as a proactive platform for FICCI members to address pertinent issues related to privacy and data security. By facilitating dialogue between industry leaders, policymakers, and legal experts, the Task Force helps shape policies that balance innovation with data privacy concerns. Key activities of the Task Force include policy advocacy, where it contributes insights and recommendations to legislative discussions. This involves analysing draft bills, conducting impact assessments, and proposing amendments that reflect industry perspectives while upholding consumer rights. Additionally, the Task Force organizes seminars, workshops, and webinars to educate businesses on best practices in data governance and cybersecurity. These efforts not only promote awareness but also foster a culture of responsible data management among Indian enterprises.
