DPIA & Data Flow

ENTERPRISE DATA MAPPING & DATA PROTECTION IMPACT ASSESSMENTS

Map every personal data flow across your databases, CRM, and cloud services to comply with statutory DPDP Act requirements.

You cannot protect what you do not know you possess. Under Section 10 of the DPDP Act 2023, Significant Data Fiduciaries must conduct periodic Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIAs). EDB Global systematically maps your digital personal data ingestion, processing, and retention pipelines, identifying compliance liabilities before they compound.

Operational & Strategic Challenge

The Hidden Danger of Shadow Data Sprawl

Over time, customer PII leaks into forgotten dev databases, Slack channels, third-party analytics scripts, and unencrypted backups. A single unmapped data leak can trigger the maximum ₹250 crore penalty under Indian law.

Unregistered Data Processors & VendorsThird-party SaaS tools processing customer data without valid Data Processing Agreements (DPAs) violate statutory fiduciary duties.

Lack of Retention & Erasure MechanismsHolding personal data indefinitely after its initial purpose is fulfilled is explicitly prohibited under the DPDP Act.

DPIA Mandate for High-Risk ProcessingAI processing, children’s data, and behavioral profiling require formal documented risk assessments before rollout.
