What is ADGM Data Protection Compliance?

The Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM) Data Protection Regulations 2021 establish one of the most advanced privacy frameworks in the Middle East. Inspired by the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the regulations govern how organizations collect, process, store, transfer, and protect personal data within the ADGM jurisdiction.

Organizations operating in ADGM must demonstrate accountability, implement privacy controls, safeguard individual rights, and maintain comprehensive governance processes to comply with the Registration Authority's requirements.

CyberSec Consulting helps businesses implement scalable privacy programs that not only satisfy ADGM regulatory obligations but also align with UAE PDPL, GDPR, ISO 27701, ISO 27001, Saudi PDPL, and international privacy standards.
