About Us
AITI is the Authority that administers and enforces the Personal Data Protection Order (PDPO). It is the national body representative of Brunei Darussalam at regional and international platforms on matters relating to data protection.
Our functions and duties include promoting public awareness on data protection as well as providing advisory and training on matters relating to personal data protection.
PDPO Overview
Personal data refers to data about an individual who can be identified from that data, or from that data and other information to which the organisation has or is likely to have access.
The PDPO aims to govern the collection, use and disclosure of personal data by private organisations by recognizing private organisations' obligations and the rights of the individuals to protect their personal data.
On 13 May 2026, AITI together with the E-Government National Centre (EGNC), conducted a seminar on Personal Data Protection for Penghulus and Ketua Kampongs in the Tutong District. The session was honoured by the attendance of Yang Berhormat Haji Mohamad Danial @ Tekpin bin Ya'akub and Yang Berhormat Abdul Aziz bin Haji Hamdan, alongside 34 Penghulu and Ketua Kampong representatives. The seminar highlighted best practices for the secure and responsible management of personal data, while reinforcing the importance of safeguarding information entrusted to organisations and community leaders. Through this engagement, AITI continues to promote greater awareness and understanding of personal data protection across different sectors and communities.
On 22 April 2026, AITI was invited by Universiti Sultan Sharif Ali (UNISSA) to conduct an engagement session on the Personal Data Protection Order for the UNISSA community, held as part of their Data Mining Workshop. The session highlighted the importance of responsible personal data management, particularly within academic and research environments where sensitive information may be collected, processed and analysed. Participants were also briefed on best practices for the secure handling and ethical safeguarding of personal data.
On 21 April 2026, AITI was invited by Universiti Brunei Darussalam (UBD) to conduct an engagement session with local Institutes of Higher Learning on the Personal Data Protection Order. As educational institutions manage large volumes of personal data, including student and staff information, the session highlighted key data protection principles, management practices and safeguarding measures to support responsible handling of personal data and address evolving data risks. The session also provided an opportunity to strengthen awareness and encourage continued compliance among higher education institutions in protecting personal data.
