Governance & Risk

Cybersecurity and Privacy Consulting

Privacy and security are two sides of the same control: if data isn't protected, it isn't compliant. We deliver integrated cybersecurity and privacy advisory aligned to the DPDP Act's 'reasonable security safeguards' requirement, ISO/IEC 27001/27701 and sector regulator expectations.

Frequently asked questions

What are 'reasonable security safeguards' under the DPDP Act?+

The DPDP Act and draft Rules require Data Fiduciaries and Processors to protect personal data with reasonable security safeguards — encryption, access control, monitoring, secure backups and incident detection. We benchmark you against ISO 27001 / NIST CSF and sector regulator expectations.

Can you also do penetration testing?+

We focus on advisory and program work; technical penetration testing is delivered by trusted partners under our coordination, so findings flow back into the integrated risk register.
