What is the best way to define technical standards for a project that needs to comply with GDPR and HIPAA regulations?▼

The best way to define technical standards for regulated projects is to create a project constitution that outlines specific principles and constraints. This ensures data privacy compliance from the outset by analyzing domain standards and security best practices.
