In 1948, the United Nations defined 30 articles of human rights which at their core were based on humanity, freedom, justice, and peace. This became a roadmap for how a lot of legislation was drafted, promulgated, and implemented the world over for years to come. As technology and society have developed, so too has the legislation developed to support, control, and protect the rights of individuals and organisations and the information concerned. We now find ourselves in a world where data protection rights and data privacy are at the forefront of legislative compliance. However, while data protection in South Africa is seemingly new legislation, its inception has been long coming.
