Data-Driven Privacy Impact Assessment
Go From Privacy Impact Assessment to Privacy Impact Assurance
Data-Driven Privacy Impact Assessment
Privacy Impact Assessments (PIA) have become an established method for helping organizations assess and communicate their privacy risk. PIAs help companies codify how they collect, process and dispose of personal Information in critical business areas. A specific version of them will be required for the Data Protection Authorities that will police the new EU General Data Protection Regulation which takes effect in May 2018. But PIAs as executed today have a severe limitation, they have no data linkage to the supposed data that underpins their justification.
PIAs use as input data flow maps that identify the movement of personal data from ingestion through disposition. Identifying where the data is stored and processed today is inferred from aggregated interviews of IT and business stakeholders.
