The Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA) and PDPC launched an open call for organisations to participate in a pilot for Singapore’s Data Protection Trustmark (DPTM) certification. The scheme aims to foster sound, transparent and accountable data protection practices among Singapore-based organisations and was developed in consultation with the industry. 
 
The open call was announced by Minister for Communications and Information, Mr S Iswaran, at the 6th Personal Data Protection Seminar today. The pilot will help to finalise the DPTM framework and certification process, prior to the DPTM’s launch planned for end 2018.
