Risk scoring across vendor management, breach notifications, DPIAs and other activities is imperative for compliance with many GDPR and the DPA18. 

Public sector organisations routinely tailor their data protection and security activities based on the results of detailed risk assessments, but this leads to a myriad of questions. How do you calculate risk? What constitutes low, medium or high risk? How do you define a risk criteria? What is the difference between inherent, current and residual risk?
