Data Compliance
Address regulatory compliance requirements with data protection
Data Protection is the Foundation of Data Privacy
All data privacy laws have two common denominators - data protection and breach notification requirements.
The reason for that is simple. Even if everyone in your organization is dedicated to respecting data privacy, that means nothing in the event of a breach.
To guarantee the privacy of sensitive data, it must be protected.
GDPR
How are you ensuring compliance?
Since 25 May 2018, GDPR is in effect. Every company that processes personal data of European residents is impacted – no matter where the company is based.
Non-compliance and mismanagement of data breaches can result in steep fines - up to 4% of global annual revenue or 20 million EUR, whichever is higher.
Is your organization ready? If you're not sure, here are 6 tips to avoid the GDPR auditor's cross-hairs.
Turn GDPR Risk into Opportunity
The key to developing a balanced GDPR strategy is recognizing where GDPR risks can be turned into opportunities.
This will allow your organization to make a realistic risk analysis, leverage the opportunities GDPR affords, and determine your organization's level of GDPR readiness.


Address these key GDPR requirements:
Buckle up with data-centric security!
Failure to protect sensitive data is like driving down the information superhighway without a seat belt - you might be fine for a while, but is it really worth the risk?
Data-centric security protects the data itself so that it's always protected; no matter if it's at rest, in motion, in use, or lost in a data breach.


GDPR Data Compliance Success Stories:
PCI DSS
Any organization involved with the processing, transmission, or storage of card data must comply with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI DSS). Compliance must be validated periodically. Failure to comply can result in fines or the termination of the ability to process card payments.
comforte data protection addresses one of the most important PCI requirements:
“Render PAN (Primary Account Number) data unreadable anywhere it is stored.”
(PCI DSS requirement 3.4)
Reduce Your Scope
comforte’s vaultless tokenization completely replaces PAN data in your environment and stores tokens in your database instead.
As you no longer store PAN data on your systems, you reduce your PCI scope and corresponding compliance cost.
What's good for you is good for your customers & partners...
Extend PCI scope reduction with data protection that goes beyond corporate boundaries.
By exchanging tokenized data instead of PANs, organizations can help their partners and customers to reduce PCI scope.
