The Trust Challenge

Key Challenges in brief:

  • Personal data collected (“Data Inventory”).
  • Retention period for the personal data (“Data Minimization”).
  • Rights and methods in accessing the personal data (“Data Subject Rights”).

This is permissible under the DPA in a limited number of circumstances. Therefore, the data flow (outgoing personal and sensitive data) ought to be monitored appropriately.

This ought to be notified within 72 hours of becoming aware of any personal data breach, this can be possible only if a “data inventory” for personal and sensitive data is maintained by a data controller.

Solutions

Our AI-based, patented solution, TurtleShield PI (Privacy Intelligence) discovers all personal and sensitive data in structured and unstructured data systems across on-premises and multi-cloud environments. TurtleShield DI (Data Inventory) enables organizations to inventory & map their entire “Data footprint”, enabling them to protect what matters the most.

Often there are silos within entities or business and IT teams and it is challenging to get a full picture of data going outside organization and which is coming into organization, especially when data is shared with third parties, vendors, business partners and much more. Our TurtleShield PI (Privacy Intelligence) creates a data map based on your “data sharing”, to facilitate you to take action on it.

TurtleShield DM (Data Minimization) helps businesses minimize excess data and adhere to data minimization principle. This is data hygiene control and we are approaching it from a risk reduction and compliance perspective. We scan large data sets to scan for excess data using Machine Learning and find out excess data including personal data. This can eliminate operational inefficiencies and save cost by removing the unwanted data and legal cost of having it with respect to regulatory compliance.

With TurtleShield RTBF (Right to Be Forgotten) provides the businesses the capabilities to comply with mandatory deletion of personal data by providing the capabilities to delete the data on request along with the validation of the deletion.

Search capability in large datasets to fulfill data subject requests in totality and at rapid space. Assumption that data only exists in databases and nowhere else is often not reality as customer data exists in many sources. Using Machine learning and AI we crawl across data sources and predict where PII can exist.

“Data Minimization”: TurtleShield DM (Data Minimization) helps businesses minimize excess data and adhere to data minimization legal requirements. This is data hygiene control and we are approaching it from a risk reduction and compliance perspective. We scan large data sets for excess data using Machine Learning, removing unnecessary and irrelevant personal data. Removing this data reduces costs by eliminating operational inefficiencies and ensuring compliance with regulatory mandates.
