The data inventory ensures alignment between regulations and internal policies while simultaneously providing real-time metrics. There is tremendous value in adding automation and machine learning to data inventory as it feeds into many aspects of a privacy program, record of processing activities (RoPA), Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA), data rights fulfillment (DSAR), and consent governance - all to mitigate privacy compliance pitfalls.

Join industry experts as we discuss how to adapt your privacy program through data discovery to overcome the current challenges of the ever-evolving privacy landscape.
