Tabletop exercise
EU GDPR tabletop exercise
Lawful processing, consent, data-subject rights, breach duties.
We can run the EU GDPR exercise for your team, or set you up as a facilitator to run it yourself.
What the room works through
EU General Data Protection Regulation (2016/679)
Controller and processor obligations. Use article refs such as Art.5, Art.30, Art.32, Art.33 and domains Principles, Rights, Accountability, Security, Transfers.
- Clauses
- 30
- Rounds
- 10 across two stages
- Room size
- Up to 20 participants
Stage 1 — assess
Tables rate control maturity, agree the risk that matters for the room, then face an audit round where a peer table challenges the call. Every decision is logged against a EU GDPR clause.
Stage 2 — survive
Incidents and complications hit the tables: crisis injects, budget cuts and a concealed insider. Controls bought in Stage 1 pay out — or the gap shows.
What you take away
- Clause-by-clause coverage across EU GDPR
- A gap list ranked by what the room could not defend
- Per-table divergence, so you can see where opinion split
- Word and CSV exports plus a drafted findings narrative
