What problems is OneTrust Privacy Automation solving and how is that benefiting you?
Every engagement I have been on has involved a comprehensive review of the company's data privacy landscape. When assessing against GDPR and/or CCPA many are still at the beginning or have nothing at all. OneTrust solves this problem by mapping everything together and separating each requirement out as stated in the law for companies to get compliant with the law. For example, an inventory can be easily imported and/or manually added into the platform very easily. The hard part is capturing all the data, but OneTrust makes this easy by providing a number of templates that fit the business needs and the requirements laid out in the law. The data mapping module which houses the record of processing activities for each asset and business function is tied to the vendor management module, which easily maps together to show which third party vendors are related to each asset the company uses. Another area of focus is Data Subject Access Request (DSAR). OneTrust makes this easy by again providing templates to use to send and respond to emails raised by a data subject requesting his/her data. This all flows through a customized workflow that also is created by the OneTrust team, but you are able to customize it to fit business needs. The time limit is also set so you get notifications to complete so you never have to worry about one going unanswered.
The OneTrust platform in general is a powerful data privacy tool that has since expanded to take on other areas, such as SOX and GRC capabilities, that may in time outperform competitors such as WDesk. I have had early access to a few of these new features in a sandbox environment and they are fantastic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
