*** ARETE: EDPS launches new training exercise on risk assessment in personal data breaches *** The EDPS is hosting the 1st edition of ARETE - the Assessment of Risk to individuals of pErsonal daTa brEaches; a training exercise designed to strengthen risk assessment capabilities across EU institutions, bodies and agencies. Building on the PATRICIA I, II and III exercises and the EDPS Data Breach Awareness campaign, ARETE focuses on one of the most complex aspects of breach management: assessing the risks a breach creates for individuals and their fundamental rights, often under time pressure and with incomplete information. The training brings together DPOs, data controllers, IT and compliance officers for a programme combining expert-led sessions on risk assessment with hands-on learning through realistic case studies and a dedicated automated tool. @Supervisor Wojciech Wiewiorowski opened the worskhop underlining: "Risk assessment sits at the centre of those decisions. It enables organisations to understand the potential consequences of an incident, to prioritise their response and, where necessary, to communicate openly with the individuals concerned. Most importantly, it ensures that decisions are based on evidence and can be clearly explained and justified."
