  *By [Brandon Summers-Miller](https://research.g2.com/insights/author/brandon-summers-miller)*

   In the event of a breach, data breach notification software helps companies document the breach, report to supervisory authorities as required by law, and notify impacted individuals. These solutions automate and operationalize the data breach notification process to adhere to strict data disclosure law and timelines, which in some instances can be as few as 72 hours. Data breach notification software helps companies comply with privacy regulations, such as the GDPR Article 34 and state statutes like California’s Information Privacy legislation.

Data breach notification functions are usually fulfilled by legal teams, but require participation from IT teams, security teams, and other groups to understand the full scope of the breach’s impact. Workflows within these tools help department representatives collaborate, while a centralized dashboard provides privacy officers or legal teams with visibility into the overarching process.

Data breach notification is one part of many in administering a business’ complete privacy program. Some [data privacy platforms](https://www.g2.com/categories/data-privacy-platforms) offer data breach notification functionality, along with additional tools related to implementing a full privacy program. Data breach notification software is related to [incident response software](https://www.g2.com/categories/incident-response); incident response software alerts administrators of security breaches and assists in remediating breach vulnerabilities, while breach notification software helps companies comply with notifying affected parties after a breach has occurred.

To qualify for inclusion in the Data Breach Notification category, a product must:

- Help companies notify impacted individuals in the event of a data breach within stipulated time frames
- Facilitate the reporting of data breaches to supervisory authorities
- Provide workflow or collaboration tools to allow legal teams, IT teams, and security teams to facilitate breach notifications
