Understand Your Complete Data Landscape
You cannot protect what you don't know you have. Data mapping gives you a complete, accurate picture of every personal data asset in your organisation — where it comes from, how it's used, where it's stored, who has access, and where it flows to.
Our data mapping service produces a comprehensive Record of Processing Activities (RoPA) meeting Article 30 GDPR requirements, alongside data flow diagrams and a data asset register that powers your entire compliance programme.
