Using a proper inventory tool such as PrivacPerfect, the assessment, management and notification of data breaches becomes significantly easier, when and if they occur.

Draw from built-in, existing data processing inventories to determine the potential consequences of a breach. Use these assets and determine, on a central level, whether an incident needs to be reported to the supervisory authority and the concerned data subject.

In the case of a breach, you might need to get in touch with other internal stakeholders. This can be easily done from within the PrivacyPerfect software. You can also store your records of notifications to data subjects or supervisory authorities, as well as the reasons not to notify. 

With PrivacyPerfect, you can embed the workflow of incident and data breach inventory inside your organisation.

As the format in which data breaches should be reported differ by each respective supervisory authority, reports created on data breaches are fully configurable and customisable with PrivacyPerfect.
