EU: NETWORK INFORMATION SECURITY & IDENTIFICATION OF DATA SUBJECTS
11 October 2014
"An outstanding issue with regard to the scope is the identification of specific sectors (Annex II), where Member States should impose security and notification obligations on operators; for example, further discussions are needed on whether or not to include in Annex II information society services, banking and financial market infrastructures.... They shall be kept in a form which permits the identification of data subjects for no longer than necessary for the purpose for which the personal data are processed." [emphasis added]
See: Council of the European Union: The Council developing a negotiating position:
