Program on Technological Compliance
Identify the technological risks faced by a company and establish internal prevention, control, management and reaction mechanisms
Some of the risks that concern the most in the business field are those related to technology, either due to their particularities or due to constant change and evolution; they pose a significant challenge. It is useless to have theoretically implemented a complete and sophisticated Compliance system if we do not know the current practical reality and the dangers posed by current and future technologies.
Technological Compliance is responsible for identifying the technological risks that a company faces.
Faced with these technological risks, the knowledge to establish internal mechanisms for prevention, control, management and reaction to risks are, if possible, more important. On the one hand, it is an area in which threats are multiple and very diverse, and in addition, they change, and new risks appear continuously. On the other hand, the nature of the control measures makes it necessary to have certain knowledge to understand their objective and operation. Finally, the legal provisions that imply obligations in the technological field are increasing. Ultimately, it is about protecting the company against all technological risks and challenges, including regulatory ones.
In collaboration with:
The lectures are taught by expert teachers with extensive professional experience who combine knowledge, experience and pedagogical vocation. In this way, the program is taught from a real perspective, and from close and specialized knowledge of business practice.
Compliance is currently a leading issue that affects all organizations, so the projection of this area's application is very positive, and knowing it in detail is essential.
We consider that it is vitally important to make the most out of the course to be able to apply theory and knowledge; for this reason, we have a practical approach with real cases, sharing and enriching each other with situations and examples, and advising on any questions that may arise in each particular case.
