FDPPI in association with DNV launched the second Joint Certification Course on Data Protection yesterday, the June 17 2023.
Naavi during the day’s proceedings highlighted not only how the concept of Privacy has been evolving in India through the Supreme Court judgements, but pointed out how the 23 year old ITA 2000 itself is the current Data Protection Law in India.
The concept of adopting ITA 2000 to the current Data Protection law requirement marks the uniqueness of Naav’s jurisprudence on ITA 2000. The net impact is that whatever time the Government takes in passing the DPDPB 2022 the law is already recognized under ITA 2000 and the Adjudicators can very well take on the responsibility of a regulator of personal data protection in India
The program will continue today with a discussion on DPDPB 2022 and will be followed next week end on discussions of other Global laws before getting into the discussion on the PDPCSI Audit framework.
The motto of the program is to take professionals towards being a Data Auditor in India.
You have heard about CIPP or DCPLA or CDPSE. Each Certification has a value. Each has an objective to make you conversant with some aspect of Data Protection. But FDPPI-DNV’s CDPP program is different. If it is supplemented with FDPPI-CLC’s CCLP it is even better.
CDPP.CCLP program of FDPPI is a one of kind program that imparts expertise on the knowledge of Indian Data Protection laws, past, present and future, Key Global data Protection laws of the present, and the Indian Cyber Laws, past, present and future.
The program is conducted over virtual interaction as well as through recorded program.
Option is provided to take participation certificate without taking the examination. If an online examination is successfully completed, the participants can get the fully empowered certificate. The examination will also be online and would be proctored.
The faculty will be Naavi, one of the veteran teachers of Cyber Law and Data Protection in India.

Foundation of Data Protection Professionals, the premier Data Protection organization in India of the professionals and by the professionals for the Data Protection Eco System, is organizing a Roundtable discussion on DPDPB 2022 and its impact on the Healthcare sector, in Bangalore on 10th of June.
The event is a physical event and participation is by invitation.
However, the event would be live broadcast the event for the benefit of people outside Bangalore in the Youtube channel -Live section at https://www.youtube.com/naavi9 (Kindly click on the link-live)
Several senior persons from the industry are expected to participate in the event and share their thoughts.
Currently Indian Healthcare sector including hospitals are required to be compliant with ITA 2000 and Section 43A requirements more specifically since health data generated by these organizations is considered “Sensitive Personal Data”. DPDPB 2022 is likely to bring in some modifications in these regulations which should be in place in the next few months.
The event will debate the concerns of the Industry and also set up an SIG on Sectoral implications of DPDPB 2022 for Healthcare sector to take the discussion forward.
FDPPI (Foundation of Data Protection Professionals in India) has launched a unique dual specialization Certification program for creating super specialization in Data Protection. The FDPPI-DNV program will lead to a Certificate of CDPP (Certified Data Protection Professional) and FDPPI-CLC program will lead to a Certificate of CCLP (Certified Cyber Law Professional).
So far in the industry when we speak of “Data Protection” and “Data Audit” we think of Personal Data only. “Non Personal Data Protection” is often considered the domain of IS professionals who are only Tech Professionals. Personal Data Protection Professionals are conscious of laws such as GDPR or DPDPB 2022 while IS professionals are more focussed on ISO standards such as 27001.
The reality however is that in an organization, the Data Pool consists of “Data” which in some context is considered “Personal” and in some context considered as “Non Personal”. According to Naavi’s Theory of data, “Data is in the beholder’s eyes”. It can be personal and non personal at the same time depending on the user. This is similar to the concept of physics which says that light is both a matter and a wave.
A career Data Protection Professional should therefore be conversant with both Personal Data Protection and Non Personal Data Protection. Unfortunately just as the Curriculum in Engineering and Law are mutually exclusive and makes it difficult to produce “Techno Legal Professionals” at the College level, keeping Information Security and Personal Data Protection exclusive makes it difficult to train “Techno Legal Career”.
Now as a pioneering effort, Naavi in association with FDPPI has started a blended course where both aspects of Cyber Laws such as ITA 2000/8 and the upcoming DIA as well as the upcoming DPDPB 2022 and GDPR are being taught to a single group. This is being done by offering a combo Certification program with FDPPI-DNV certification for Data Protection and FDPPI-CLC certification program for Cyber Laws.
No doubt this is a unique and first of the kind experiment of bringing two disciplines into a single platform. We hope this will be appreciated and will become a norm in the future.
Both Programs will be launched on June 17, 2023. The Data Protection program is scheduled as 3 hours sessions on both Saturdays and Sundays for 4 weeks (8 sessions of 3 hours each)
The Cyber Law Course is presented as a hybrid course. It will be formally launched on June 17, 2023 in the afternoon at 3.30 pm. Firstly 14 hours of recorded version of the course would be made available to students. Then during subsequent Saturdays’ 90 minute interactive sessions will be held on June 24 and July 1st and July 8th to discuss the different aspects of the recorded sessions. The June 24th Session would discuss upto Digital Contracts. July 1st session would discuss the Cyber Crimes and July 8th session will discuss the Compliance issues arising from ITA 2000.
It is optional for students to take the combo offer or restrict themselves to one of the courses.
