Assess Your Data Risks. Protect Your Business.


Identifying privacy impacts early is only the first step. Conducting a DPIA bridges the gap between legal requirements and technical workflows to ensure you handle sensitive data safely.


Data Privacy Impact Assessment


Cryptika | Vulnerability Management Service

A new system, campaign, data-sharing arrangement, analytics activity, or outsourcing decision can create privacy risk before the organization notices it. A DPIA or privacy risk assessment helps identify how personal data is collected, used, stored, shared, protected, retained, and deleted before the activity creates compliance, operational, or reputational exposure.

What the service covers

Cryptika supports privacy impact assessment and privacy risk assessment activities for new or changed processing, high-risk data activities, sensitive data use, third-party processing, digital channels, integrations, and governance remediation programs.



Why organizations need it

Organizations need this service when processing activities involve sensitive data, large volumes of personal data, automated decisions, new technology, data sharing, transfers, third-party access, weak retention practices, or uncertainty around privacy controls. The assessment gives management and control owners a clear view of risk and required mitigation.

How Cryptika delivers the work

Cryptika identifies the processing activity, stakeholders, systems, data categories, purposes, legal and policy constraints, data flows, third parties, access, storage, transfer, retention, deletion, security safeguards, and residual risks. Workshops are used to validate business need and control feasibility.

      FAQ

      When should a DPIA be performed?

      It should be considered before launching or materially changing processing that may create privacy risk, especially where sensitive data, large-scale processing, transfers, third parties, or new technology are involved.

      Is a DPIA the same as a cybersecurity risk assessment?

      No. A cybersecurity risk assessment focuses on threats to systems and information. A DPIA focuses on risks to people, privacy rights, lawful processing, transparency, minimization, and data handling.

      Who should participate?

      Business owners, legal/privacy, information security, IT, procurement, compliance, and relevant data owners should participate depending on the scope.
