A significant part of compliance is knowing what data you have and where it lives. Whether you need to perform a DPIA, provide evidence as part of an audit, or enhance security measures for data sources with higher risk, this can be a slow and painful process. Why? Because most companies have hundreds — if not thousands — of SaaS and on-premise systems where personal data is collected, transferred, shared, and stored.
That's why we've released Data Discovery. It uses artificial intelligence to discover and classify personal data, automate privacy rights fulfillment and demonstrate compliance. We launched this tool to save organizations hours of expensive manual labor and pain by automating the process.
Here's how to get started:

Without automated data discovery, companies are often left to use systems like a manually built spreadsheet to track data. That makes you vulnerable to inefficiencies, human error and pain. And even then, oftentimes, data hiding in various systems and databases gets overlooked. Human error is real.
