These services include assessing privacy risks, implementing data protection policies, securing storage and transmission, and ensuring compliance with regulations such as GDPR, HIPAA, and CCPA.

By minimizing data breach risks, businesses can build trust with customers and partners while maintaining legal and regulatory standards.

WHAT IS
Data Privacy

At digiALERT, we specialize in Data Privacy services. Our data privacy assessments provide a comprehensive view of your organization's data handling practices and associated risks. We analyze your systems for potential privacy vulnerabilities, identify and document existing privacy controls, and provide detailed recommendations for further improvements. We start by reviewing your data collection, storage, and processing practices for common privacy issues, such as unauthorized access, lack of encryption, and data retention policies. We also review third-party data-sharing practices to identify any potential risks. Once identified, we provide detailed recommendations on how to address these issues to ensure compliance with data privacy regulations. Next, we review the privacy controls in place to ensure they are properly configured and up-to-date. This includes reviewing access controls, consent management, and data subject rights. We also evaluate your systems for compliance with relevant data privacy standards and regulations, such as GDPR, CCPA, or other applicable laws.

For DATA PRIVACY which focuses on cybersecurity, here’s a recommended approach for its implementation and maintenance:

  1. Annual Audits: Conduct comprehensive data privacy audits once a year to assess data protection practices, review compliance with regulations, and update policies.

  3. After Major Changes: Whenever there is a significant change in business operations, technology, or legal requirements (e.g., launching new products, implementing new software, or changes in privacy laws), a data privacy assessment should be done.
  4. Following Data Breaches or Incidents: If a data breach or security incident occurs, an immediate data privacy review is essential to address vulnerabilities and prevent future incidents.
  5. Staff Training: Regular employee training on data privacy practices is also recommended, especially after policy updates or new regulations.
