Bringing Order, Consistency, and Intelligence to Privacy Assessments
Privacy assessments are critical — PIAs, DPIAs, vendor assessments, RoPAs, business process mapping.
But in most organizations, they’re also messy: spreadsheets everywhere, inconsistent templates, scattered documentation, and a scramble when auditors come knocking.
Before we modernized them, we faced the same challenges internally.
In Episode 4, Heather Kuhn, Senior Privacy Counsel, shares how BigID built a connected, automated assessment framework that reduces overhead, eliminates duplication, and keeps everything up-to-date as the business changes.
This episode is all about taking one of privacy’s most painful workflows and making it structured, scalable, and sustainable.
O que descobrimos
As we replaced spreadsheets with automated workflows, we uncovered:
- How much time teams spent collecting information instead of assessing risk
- How differently departments interpreted templates and requirements
- How challenging it was to maintain version control across assessments
- How linking assessments to discovered data improved accuracy
- How much repeat effort was eliminated once processes lived in a central system
It wasn’t just about making assessments faster — it was about making them meaningful, consistent, and always ready for review.
