Data Protection Managed Services
A one-stop, cost-effective solution for global data protection.
A Scalable Approach to Managed Data Protection Services
Comprehensive data protection is a must. Breaches and non-compliance issues have consequences ranging from fines to lost productivity, diminished reputation and buyer trust, and lawsuits. Today, building a holistic and proactive data protection strategy is a necessity to offset threats, manage buyer expectations and comply with evolving regulations.
In this environment, it is more important than ever for organizations to enhance and maintain their data protection and privacy compliance programs. While most organizations recognize the importance of data privacy compliance, they struggle with limited staff, inadequate bandwidth, inability to scale, fragmented ownership of privacy tasks and the reality of “just-in-time” privacy operations.

Our expansive global team responds to meet fluctuating data protection demands, utilizes market leading privacy platforms and leverages experience with in-country regulators around the world.

Our Offerings
Periodic health checks to measure the privacy program maturity and implementation against leading practices and regulatory requirements. We will conduct a custom assessment using our Privacy+ Framework to identify gaps, develop a program roadmap, and monitor compliance.
Leveraging processes and artifacts to systematically maintain your PI inventory and develop or update your business processing activities register. We combine insights and connectivity from other related efforts, such as privacy impact assessments (PIA), asset inventories, and data mapping to maintain consistency.
Right-sizing staffing levels to fulfill individual rights requests can be challenging given typical month-to-month fluctuations. Our holistic fulfillment workflow reduces cost and automates as much of the process as possible. Metrics are provided on a monthly basis and escalation points are established along with standard response templates to maximize efficiency, improve quality, and reduce overhead.
Managed Privacy by Design augments existing privacy teams to implement and facilitate PIAs and other risk assessments, identify privacy risks, and advise on remediation options. We embed these processes into IT development methodologies and vendor procurement to proactively address risk.
At the core of your privacy program are the policies and procedures which establish standards for how your organization processes and protects PI. We continuously monitor your business and regulatory changes, review program artifacts and create or update documentation so you stay up to date.
