Identity Security in the Digital Age Whitepaper by IDC

IDC White Paper delves into the significance of identity security, specifically identity governance and administration (IGA), in the Asia/Pacific (including Japan) (APJ) region. The region’s data privacy and regulatory landscape presents intricate challenges due to diverse and dynamic laws governing data protection and identities. Heightened concerns about cyber threats and personal information misuse have led countries to implement more stringent regulations, rigorous enforcement actions, and increased penalties for non-compliance. 

This White Paper provides a comprehensive overview of data privacy regulations in Australia, Hong Kong, India, Japan, Malaysia, New Zealand, Singapore, South Korea, and Taiwan. It also offers guidance on key requirements of data privacy laws related to identity security and addresses the impact of emerging technologies on identity security and privacy control for regional organizations.
