The British Natural History Museum wanted to provide proof of its accountability and trustworthiness by streamlining compliance operations and evolving its approach to privacy.
“We needed to move away from spreadsheets and introduce a more accessible and user-friendly means of managing our data processing activities,” says Richard Hinton, head of TS and enterprise architecture planning, Natural History Museum.
