Data Discovery

Smart Data Cataloging: TurtleShield uses machine learning and natural language processing (NLP) to automatically catalog discovered data. This is key for reducing manual errors and enabling more efficient data governance.

Risk Prioritization: By identifying sensitive data and its locations, the tool allows businesses to prioritize the data most at risk and implement necessary security controls​.

Regulatory Compliance: TurtleShield helps companies meet regulatory requirements, including GDPR, CCPA, HIPAA, and others. It offers a detailed understanding of sensitive data, which is crucial for meeting compliance deadlines for data subject access requests (DSARs) and the right to be forgotten.

Data Minimization: The tool helps organizations implement data minimization principles by identifying and eliminating redundant, obsolete, or trivial data. This reduces storage costs and limits the scope of data that could be exposed in a breach.

Customer Data Rights: TurtleShield allows companies to honor data privacy rights by easily locating and managing customer data. For instance, it enables organizations to respond to access, correction, deletion, and opt-out requests, ensuring compliance with privacy laws​.

Consumer Trust: By managing customer data efficiently and transparently, companies can build greater trust with their stakeholders.

Visualization and Reporting: TurtleShield provides intuitive dashboards and reports, making it easier for privacy officers and IT teams to monitor data risks and compliance status in real-time. The reports are also useful for audits and regulatory reviews​.

Cross-Platform Integration: The tool integrates seamlessly with existing IT infrastructure, whether on-premises or in the cloud. It supports various platforms and databases, allowing businesses of all sizes to incorporate it into their workflows.

Scalable: It scales with the size of the organization, making it a suitable solution for both SMBs and large enterprises​.

Data Protection: Once sensitive data is discovered and mapped, TurtleShield helps apply necessary security measures such as encryption, access controls, and monitoring. It ensures that only authorized users have access to sensitive information​.
