About this training

Banks and fintechs hold some of the most sensitive data in the country — CNICs, account balances, transaction histories and biometrics. This programme combines privacy principles (including Pakistan's evolving data protection framework, GDPR concepts and sector rules) with practical engineering controls: classification, encryption, tokenisation, masking, retention and data-loss prevention.

Who it's for: Data owners, engineers, DBAs, compliance and risk teams, product managers and DPO teams.

  • ✔Classify data and build a data inventory
  • ✔Apply privacy-by-design to new products
