Data inventory is at the heart of all privacy and data protection; most companies rely on surveys and recollection as opposed to actual knowledge. Is your record of processing wishful thinking – do you really have an inventory based on evidence?
Data inventory is at the heart of all privacy and data protection; most companies rely on surveys and recollection as opposed to actual knowledge. Is your record of processing wishful thinking – do you really have an inventory based on evidence? A combination approach is necessary; to overcome years of poor information governance/documentation and ad hoc changes, discovery and scanning is essential to finding out what is really going on in the organisation. Technology alone, however, is not sufficient, as it cannot explain business purposes or benefits. A strategic approach to data discovery not only surfaces those unknowns, but allows multiple organisational departments to leverage the knowledge gained from an effective data discovery within privacy.
This session will discuss how effective data discovery will accelerate privacy in your organisation and put data at the centre of your data privacy program.
