Challenge<\/h5>\n

Where\u2019s the Important Data Stored?<\/strong><\/p>\n

RHC has a customer presence in California, which makes it subject to the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). This gives consumers a series of rights over their personal data held by organizations. Our client\u2019s first challenge was to locate where all its consumer data was stored. Different legacy systems controlled by different departments held the data, and these systems didn\u2019t communicate. That put RHC behind on meeting CCPA requirements, leaving them at-risk for substantial non-compliance fines.<\/p>\n

Action<\/h5>\n

Data Privacy Workshop and Audit Keys to Success<\/strong><\/p>\n

We first conducted a data privacy assessment workshop with RHC and performed a data privacy audit. Prolifics offers this as part of our \u201cCCPA jumpstart.\u201d It includes a data inventory and sampling, applies documentation and architectural requirements, and uses artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI\/AL) to find all of a client\u2019s consumer personal data and identify where there may be risk of violating privacy laws.<\/p>\n

Result<\/h5>\n

More Data Sources Discovered<\/strong><\/p>\n

Using our internal tools and accelerators, we discovered 163 different sources of data. RHC only knew about a fraction of these sources. Now it knows where all the consumer data it collects comes from and where it\u2019s located.
\nGoing further \u2013 the governance and security connection to privacy<\/p>\n

Prolifics considers consumer data privacy to be a part of data governance and connected to corporate security. And we understand that good data is critical to everything a company does. Beyond the jumpstart, we\u2019re helping RHC determine how best to organize, manage and govern all its data and data systems. Based on RHC\u2019s desired business outcomes, we conducted a data maturity assessment to determine how best to structure their data. This included an organizational assessment to help put data policies in place and determine specific employees\u2019 roles and responsibilities around the data. <\/p>\n
