The NIST Privacy Framework was created to help organizations improve their data privacy posture with proactive risk management through a single unified framework that is scalable and adaptable to emerging challenges across data privacy and protection regulations. The NIST Privacy Framework focuses on five core functions: Identify, Govern, Control, Communicate, and Protect.
BigID helps organizations align with NIST to safeguard personal data, demonstrate accountability, and future-proof privacy programs.
Automatically discover and classify personal, sensitive, and regulated data across cloud, on-prem, and hybrid environments to manage risk. To comply with this function, build an accurate and dynamic data inventory and map processing activities across your entire data landscape.
Create and establish a governance structure to better prioritize and manage risk. Enforce data policies across the data lifecycle via retention, minimization, and access controls aligned with regulatory and compliance requirements.
Apply processing policies (purpose, retention, lawfulness) to control high-risk data. Manage, monitor, and map data and enforce controls to align with internal policy and regulatory requirements.
Generate identity-aware reports that communicate what data is being processed and why, establish data transparency for data collection, and track data sharing. Prioritize privacy and security risks, and put controls in place to manage data requests and breach notification.
Protect high-risk data against cybersecurity events and potential privacy violations. Manage data risk throughout the data lifecycle – classify sensitive data, remediate overexposed and overprivileged data, and minimize the potential attack surface.
Whether you’re scaling privacy programs, managing risk, or preparing for new regulations, BigID makes compliance impactful and sustainable.
