This book examines the implementation and challenges of Brazil's General Data Protection Law (LGPD), with a focus on its impact on the healthcare sector, specifically the Federal University of Juiz de Fora University Hospital (HU-UFJF). It explores the historical context and influences of European data protection legislation on the LGPD, the regulatory framework for data security, and the challenges faced by organizations in adapting to LGPD requirements. The study includes an assessment of the hospital's maturity in compliance, particularly in the dimension of information security, and proposes measures to enhance its adherence to the law. The book provides valuable insights for healthcare administrators, policymakers, and public sector managers aiming to align with data privacy norms. |
