Data Asset Inventory

A robust data asset inventory is fundamental to any privacy program. Whether you are just starting this process, have developed a basic inventory, or leveraged tools such as scans or interview-based, we typically start most privacy engagements here to ensure your foundation is strong.

 

Establishing a robust data asset inventory can be a difficult, long process, particularly when it comes to asking the right questions and probing where necessary. Our team’s expertise allows us to shorten a typically months long process to 1-4 weeks with a series of interviews performed within 2-4 days and final output delivered 1-3 weeks later. This detailed inventory is essential as it will become the foundation of your privacy program.

Data Inventory

Most companies lack visibility or adequate knowledge about the personal data they collect and store, about both employees and consumers. Discovering every single place personal data is stored within a company’s systems (servers, emails, systems, etc.) requires a deep dive into each.

Consumer Data Inventory

Any time consumer information is gathered by a company either manually or electronically, that information must be accounted for and tracked throughout the company:

  • Servers
  • E-commerce systems
  • Email
  • The cloud

Employment Data Inventory

In CA it’s the law, but it’s good practice…. from the time a candidate applies for a job to the time their employees retire, companies collect a lot of personal data. Included as “employment data”

  • Applicants
  • Employees
  • Retirees
  • Beneficiaries

Full Data Inventory covers both Consumer and Employment Data.
