A DPTM certification will help businesses increase their competitive advantage and build trust with their clients. The DPTM will be a visible indicator that an organisation adopts sound data protection practices.
It is administered by the Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA).
Is DPTM recognised overseas?
The DPTM is a local certification scheme. Depending on regional developments, the PDPC may explore mutual recognition of similar certifications with other countries.
