ID-REDACT® consists of the 7 core tenets of Data Privacy compliance:

Consent Management Portal (CMP): CMP module dynamically updates and manages consents and preferences in line with DPDP Act regulation. This customizable module ensures that organizations not only adhere to current consent and preference norms, but are also prepared for future modifications.

CDD seamlessly integrates with real time, historical and individual data sources, processes unstructured, semi-structered and structured data types at 99.54% hyper-accuracy to meet data compliance requirements.

Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA): The PIA module conducts automated assessments to ascertain the current state of data privacy compliance, compliance gaps and defines the future roadmap to implement effective data privacy compliance. PIA has incorporated risk assessment algorithms, ensuring that organizations' practices are always aligned with the latest privacy standards set forth by the DPDP Act.

Data Subject Access Request (DSAR): DSAR module, powered by an AI rules engine, enables data subjects to exercise their data rights under the DPDP Act through a sophisticated process that adjusts to legislative changes, ensuring ongoing compliance with access, correction, and deletion requests. DSAR supports automated requests as well as more complicated manual use cases.

Confidential Data Redaction (CDR): CDR module, powered by patent pending CCE®, hand coded AI models and rules engine, customizes redaction techniques to remove confidential data elements to meet DPDP Act's guidelines. CDR redacts unstructured, semi-structered and structured data elements from real time, historical and individual data sources at 99.54% hyper-accuracy.

Compliance Audit (CA): CA module automates internal and external data privacy audits, captures and renders key data elements for Consent and Preferences, DSARs, CDD, CDR to reconcile pre and post redaction data points while ensuring adherence to the DPDP Act.

Data Privacy Management (DPM): DPM module, designed with a compliance engine at the core, meets not only the DPDP Act but also other major global privacy laws like GDPR, HIPAA, PDPA, NESA and CPRA. The module facilitates the integration of privacy compliance into every aspect of an organization, from policy formulation to technological deployment, ensuring an initiative-taking stance on privacy rights protection and legal compliance.
