Data processing management with Anjana Data Platform for compliance with data protection laws

Compliance with data protection regulations, such as the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), is a key challenge for modern organisations. These regulations require, among other things, keeping records of data processing activities up to date, ensuring traceability, conducting impact assessments and demonstrating compliance. The complexity of this task increases considerably if adequate tools are not available.

The challenges of manual data processing management

Many organisations still rely on manual processes to manage treatment records, using spreadsheets or scattered documents that make updating, tracking and auditing difficult. These practices not only increase the risk of non-compliance, but also create operational inefficiencies and make collaboration between teams difficult.

In addition, the regulations require the inclusion of key information such as:

• The purpose of the processing.
• Identification of controllers and processors.
• Personal data involved and categories of data subjects.
• Security measures implemented.

Anjana Data Platform: a holistic and automated approach

Anjana Data Platform revolutionises the management of data processing by integrating this functionality with the organisation's data catalogue. This integration makes it possible to automate processes, guarantee traceability and facilitate regulatory compliance. Its main capabilities include:

• Centralised and automated registration: Treatment records are stored in a single place, allowing them to be created manually, via bulk uploads or API integrations.
• Linkage to the data catalogue: Each record relates directly to the assets in the catalogue, ensuring that any changes to the data are automatically reflected in the treatments.
• Validation flows and permissions: Configurable templates ensure that records are reviewed and approved by key decision-makers, including the Data Protection Officer (DPO).
• Impact assessments: The platform enables the management of these assessments to identify and mitigate risks associated with the processing of personal data.
• Visualisation of the life cycle: Interactive diagrams make it easy to understand the flow of data, from its collection to its final use.
• Alerts and auditing: Automatic notifications remind you of periodic revisions, and the change history ensures efficient auditing.
