Titel Regulering
Artikel 49 1.

I mangel af en afgørelse om tilstrækkeligheden af beskyttelsesniveauet i henhold til artikel 45, stk. 3, eller fornødne garantier i henhold til artikel 46, herunder bindende virksomhedsregler, må en overførsel eller flere overførsler af personoplysninger til et tredjeland eller en international organisation kun finde sted på en af følgende betingelser:

a) 

den registrerede udtrykkelig har givet samtykke til den foreslåede overførsel efter at være blevet informeret om de mulige risici, som sådanne overførsler kan medføre for den registrerede på grund af den manglende afgørelse om tilstrækkeligheden af beskyttelsesniveauet eller fornødne garantier

b) 

overførslen er nødvendig af hensyn til opfyldelse af en kontrakt mellem den registrerede og den dataansvarlige eller af hensyn til gennemførelse af foranstaltninger, der træffes på den registreredes anmodning forud for indgåelsen af en sådan kontrakt

c) 

overførslen er nødvendig af hensyn til indgåelse eller opfyldelse af en kontrakt, der i den registreredes interesse indgås mellem den dataansvarlige og en anden fysisk eller juridisk person

d) 

overførslen er nødvendig af hensyn til vigtige samfundsinteresser

e) 

overførslen er nødvendig for, at retskrav kan fastlægges, gøres gældende eller forsvares

f) 

overførslen er nødvendig for at beskytte den registreredes eller andre personers vitale interesser, hvis den registrerede ikke fysisk eller juridisk er i stand til at give samtykke

g) 

overførslen finder sted fra et register, der ifølge EU-ret eller medlemsstaternes nationale ret er beregnet til at informere offentligheden, og som er tilgængeligt for offentligheden generelt eller for personer, der kan godtgøre at have en legitim interesse heri, men kun i det omfang de ved EU-ret eller medlemsstaternes nationale ret fastsatte betingelser for offentlig tilgængelighed er opfyldt i det specifikke tilfælde

►C1  Hvis overførsel ikke kan have hjemmel i en bestemmelse i artikel 45 eller 46, herunder bestemmelserne om bindende virksomhedsregler, og ingen af undtagelserne i særlige situationer omhandlet i dette stykkes første afsnit finder anvendelse, må en overførsel til et tredjeland eller en international organisation kun finde sted, hvis overførslen ikke gentages, ◄ hvis overførslen ikke gentages, kun vedrører et begrænset antal registrerede, er nødvendig af hensyn til vægtige legitime interesser, som forfølges af den dataansvarlige, den registreredes interesser eller rettigheder og frihedsrettigheder ikke går forud for disse interesser, og den dataansvarlige har vurderet alle omstændigheder i forbindelse med overførslen og på grundlag af denne vurdering giver passende garantier for beskyttelse af personoplysningerne. Den dataansvarlige underretter tilsynsmyndigheden om overførslen. Ud over oplysningerne i artikel 13 og 14 underretter den dataansvarlige den registrerede om overførslen og om de vægtige legitime interesser, der forfølges.

Artikel 49 2.
En overførsel i henhold til stk. 1, første afsnit, litra g), må ikke omfatte alle personoplysninger eller hele kategorier af personoplysninger i et register. Når et register er beregnet til at blive konsulteret af personer, der har en legitim interesse heri, må overførsel kun ske på anmodning af disse personer, eller hvis de skal være modtagerne.
Artikel 49 3.
Stk. 1, første afsnit, litra a), b) og c), og stk. 1, andet afsnit, finder ikke anvendelse på aktiviteter, der gennemføres af offentlige myndigheder som led udøvelsen af deres offentligretlige beføjelser.
Artikel 49 4.
De samfundsinteresser, der er omhandlet i stk. 1, første afsnit, litra d), skal være anerkendt i EU-retten eller retten i den medlemsstat, som den dataansvarlige er underlagt.
Artikel 49 5.
Hvis der ikke er vedtaget en afgørelse om tilstrækkeligheden af beskyttelsesniveauet, kan EU-retten eller medlemsstaternes nationale ret af hensyn til vigtige samfundsinteresser udtrykkelig fastsætte grænser for overførsel af særlige kategorier af oplysninger til et tredjeland eller en international organisation. Medlemsstaterne giver Kommissionen meddelelse om disse bestemmelser.
Artikel 49 6.
Den dataansvarlige eller databehandleren dokumenterer vurderingen og de passende garantier i denne artikels stk. 1, andet afsnit, i de fortegnelser, der er omhandlet i artikel 30.

SCR-CMM

Level 0 Not Performed

Practices are non-existent, based on the inability to demonstrate an implemented and operational capability. A reasonable person would conclude the control is not being performed.

Level 1 Performed Informally

Data Classification & Handling (DCH) domain capabilities are ad hoc and inconsistent. Capability criteria associated with this control may include:
▪ Policies, standards & procedures associated with DCH domain capabilities provide limited coverage due to the depth and breadth of the existing documentation.
▪ Data management-related activities are decentralized (e.g., a localized/regionalized function) and uses non-standardized methods to implement secure, resilient and compliant practices.
▪ Restrictions for ad-hoc data transfers are primarily administrative in nature (e.g., policies & standards).

Level 2 Planned Tracked

Data Classification & Handling (DCH) capabilities are requirements-driven, but are not standardized across the entity (e.g., local/regional level consistency). Capability criteria associated with this control reasonably expect the following criteria to exist:
▪ Policies and standards associated with DCH domain capabilities are formally documented and centrally-managed by the entity.
▪ Standardized Operating Procedures (SOP) associated with DCH domain capabilities are documented and maintained by process owners.
▪ IT and/or cybersecurity personnel work with business stakeholders and process owners to appropriately scope and reasonably implement cybersecurity and data protection controls associated with DCH domain capabilities to address applicable statutory, regulatory and/or contractual requirements for Technology Assets, Applications, Services and/or Data (TAASD).
▪ Data classification and handling-related controls are primarily administrative and preventative in nature (e.g., policies, standards and procedures & guidelines).
▪ Data classification and handling management may be a defined function (e.g., team or department) or assigned as an additional duty to existing IT and/or cybersecurity personnel.
▪ A formalized data classification scheme exists to identify categories of data, based on protection requirements from applicable laws, regulations and/or contractual obligations.
▪ IT and/or cybersecurity personnel work with business stakeholders and process owners to document where sensitive/regulated data is stored, transmitted and/or processed.

Level 3 Well Defined

Data Classification & Handling (DCH) capabilities are standardized across the entity for applicability to People, Processes, Technologies, Data and/or Facilities (PPTDF) to ensure consistency for Technology Assets, Applications, Services and/or Data (TAASD). Capability criteria associated with this control reasonably expect the following criteria to exist:
▪ Policies and standards associated with DCH domain capabilities are formally documented and centrally-managed by the entity's Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC) team, or similar function.
▪ Standardized Operating Procedures (SOP) associated with DCH domain capabilities are well-documented and kept current by process owners.
▪ A Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC) team, or similar function, is appropriately staffed and supported to implement and maintain DCH domain capabilities.
▪ Technology is leveraged to enhance the efficiency and accuracy of data classification and handling operations (e.g., GRC platform).
▪ The entity's Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC) team, or similar function, works with business stakeholders and process owners to appropriately scope and reasonably implement cybersecurity and data protection controls associated with DCH domain capabilities to address Minimum Compliance Requirements (MCR) (e.g., applicable statutory, regulatory and/or contractual requirements) and Discretionary Security Requirements (DSR) (e.g., entity-required controls).
▪ An implemented and operational capability exists to secure ad-hoc exchanges of large digital files with internal or external parties.

Level 4 Quantitatively Controlled

Data Classification & Handling (DCH) capabilities, in addition to being standardized across the entity and centrally managed to ensure consistency across Technology Assets, Applications, Services and/or Data (TAASD), efforts are metrics driven to provide sufficient insight for decision makers to predict optimal performance, ensure continued operations and/or identify areas for improvement. Capability criteria associated with this control reasonably expect the following criteria to exist:
▪ Applicable SCR-CMM Level 3 (Well Defined) capabilities are implemented and operational.
▪ Metrics reporting includes quantitative analysis of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs).
▪ Metrics reporting includes quantitative analysis of Key Risk Indicators (KRIs).
▪ Scope of metrics, KPIs and KRIs covers organization-wide cybersecurity and data protection controls, including functions performed by third-parties.
▪ Organizational leadership maintains a formal process to objectively review and respond to metrics, KPIs and KRIs (e.g., monthly or quarterly review).
▪ Based on metrics analysis, process improvement recommendations are submitted for review and are handled in accordance with change control processes.
▪ Business and technical stakeholders are involved in reviewing and approving proposed changes to evolve capabilities.

Level 5 Continuously Improving

Data Classification & Handling (DCH) capabilities, in addition to being standardized across the entity and centrally managed to ensure consistency across Technology Assets, Applications, Services and/or Data (TAASD), efforts are metrics driven to provide sufficient insight for decision makers to predict optimal performance, ensure continued operations and/or identify areas for improvement. Capability criteria associated with this control reasonably expect the following criteria to exist:
▪ Applicable SCR-CMM Level 3 (Well Defined) capabilities are implemented and operational.
▪ Based on predictive analysis, process improvements are implemented according to “continuous improvement” practices that affect process changes.
▪ Stakeholders make time-sensitive decisions to support operational efficiency, which may include automated remediation actions via Artificial Intelligence (AI) or Machine Learning (ML) technologies.

Level 1 Performed Informally

SCR-CMM Level 1 criteria definitions are not available for this control:
▪ A reasonable person would conclude this control requires a structured process.
▪ At this level of maturity, the "ad hoc" nature of performing a capability informally would indicate the intent of the control is not met due to a lack of consistency and formality.
