Alongside this escalating trend, a rising demand for legal expertise in navigating the complex technological implications is becoming evident.

This certification, an extension of the UK General Data Protection Regulation, covers organizations processing, storing, or using customer data. Shufti Pro's CEO, Victor Fredung, commented on this accomplishment and noted their commitment to secure a transparent customer data handling. However, the need for legal experts to guide such practices has also increased as regulations evolve.
