Article 30 data inventory

DocAuthority can simplify the creation of an GDPR Article 30 compliant data inventory for your unstructured data.

Thousands of documents will be categorized by their function. In practice this means that DocAuthority will find and categorize all your invoices, purchase orders, performance reviews, status reports or in fact, typically any document that is the output of a process.

Discovering the business process owner and establishing the purpose and legal basis of any processing is then straight-forward.

Classification

Classifying business data is a foundation element of information risk management and information security as well as also contributing significantly to regulatory compliance.

DocAuthority can reduce the costs of classifying business data while at the same time addressing several shortcomings of traditional document classification solutions.

Data Loss Reduction

Ensuring that groups and individuals do not have data to which they have no requirement is a major step in ensuring that data loss risks are minimised. However, DocAuthority will also assist in identifying accounts with excessive privileges and sensitive data that is not adequately safeguarded.

If you want to take that a step further and use DocAuthority to bolster your existing DLP solution, that’s possible too.

Confidentiality

DocAuthority can significantly reduce these challenges by automatically: identifying folders which have high volumes of sensitive data (and their owners), identifying business processes which are publishing sensitive information as well as identifying the outputs from those business processes wherever it is and identifying accounts which appear to have excessive privileges.

Data Minimisation

DocAuthority can find concentrations of regulated data and PII by department, business process or territory. It can make it easier for your business to dispose of data which it does not have a lawful basis to process.

The DocAuthority platform is highly effective in identifying redundant data which has no business value.

Document retention

DocAuthority offers dramatic benefits for businesses wishing to carry out document retention and the management of their overall data retention activities.

First, DocAuthority automatically finds and collates records-type documents. It does the hard work so you don’t have to.

Secondly, using DocAuthority, it is easy to find the business processes and their owners who are responsible for generating and publishing the data. This means it’s a straight-forward activity to engage the right business stakeholders so that they can take the required action.

GDPR

DocAuthority enables the management of very large volumes of historical data allowing it to be managed in line with the requirements set out by GDPR for less cost and less overhead than has previously been possible.

No software solution can make any business GDPR compliant but we’ve worked hard to make sure that DocAuthority can enable your business to align with the principles of GDPR.

DocAuthority is closely aligned to the GDPR principles and if you want to see first hand how DocAuthority can help with your regulatory requirements, get in touch with the team.

Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIA)

If you need to undertake a DPIA for a new process or for existing business data flows, DocAuthority can help.

The automatic creation of an information catalogue gives you immediate visibility in to which personal data is being processed, published and stored as well as the department(s) responsible.

If you’re concerned about the management of sensitive personal information in existing business processes, why not create a data inventory for your unstructured data and engage stakeholders to conduct DPIAs for their existing workflows which process personal data?

Data Subject Access Requests (DSAR)

If you’re concerned about the costs and overhead of DSARS (or processing any of the individual rights requests, DocAuthority pre-indexing and pre-discovery of all unstructured data will ensure that finding the information you are looking for is quick and easy.

If you need to find any documents or emails which contain the name of a customer, a colleague or a supplier then that’s just a few seconds work. Report effortlessly and copy data to those responsible for handling subject access requests in minutes.

Regulated data discovery

While DocAuthority supports regular expressions and rich search strings, we believe there’s a more accurate and effective way to discover regulated data in your business. One that is highly accurate and completely language agnostic.

We don’t believe that you should only discover some of your data or just the data which may present a risk. We don’t believe in an approach that relies on discovering thousands of exceptions and violations and challenging business stakeholders to take the costly and labor intensive corrective action.

We believe in tying regulated data to the processes, owners and business units that create and publish it. We do all of this and more and if you want to see how, get in touch with the team.
