Working paper - Using the DPV to map the GDPR Register of Processing Activities

Hello All

My Name is Paul Ryan. I am  aPhD student in Dublin City University. I am
new to this group . I wanted to make you all aware of some work that
myself, Harshvardhan J Pandit and Rob Brennan are doing at the moment. We
used the DPV to map a number of GDPR concepts that are contained within six
regulator provided  Register of Processing Activities (ROPA)  templates.
The findings from our research are quite interesting in that we have
identified some areas where the DPV could be extended to fully map the
ROPA.  An abstract and a link to the working paper are provided below:


Towards a Semantic Model of the GDPR Register of Processing Activities

A core requirement for GDPR compliance is the maintenance of a register of
processing activities (ROPA). Our analysis of six ROPA templates from EU
data protection regulators shows the scope and granularity of a ROPA is
subject to widely varying guidance in different jurisdictions. We present a
consolidated data model based on common concepts and relationships across
analysed templates. We then analyse the extent of using the Data Privacy
Vocabulary - a vocabulary specification for GDPR. We show that the DPV
currently does not provide sufficient concepts to represent the ROPA data
model and propose an extension to fill this gap. This will enable creation
of a pan-EU information management framework for interoperability between
organisations and regulators for GDPR compliance.

We hope that you find this of interest, and I welcome any feedback on our
work

Thanks

Paul
