  • Patent number: 11244072
    Abstract: In various embodiments, a Data Model Adaptive Execution System may be configured to take one or more suitable actions to remediate an identified risk in view of one or more regulations (e.g., one or more legal regulations, one or more binding corporate rules, etc.). For example, in order to ensure compliance with one or more standards related to the collection and/or storage of personal data, an entity may be required to modify one or more aspects of a way in which the entity collects, stores, and/or otherwise processes personal data (e.g., in response to a change in a legal or other requirement). In order to identify whether a particular change or other risk trigger requires remediation, the system may be configured to assess a relevance of the risk posed by the risk and identify one or more processing activities or data assets that may be affected by the risk.

  • Patent number: 11240273
    Abstract: In particular embodiments, a data processing data inventory generation system is configured to: (1) generate a data model (e.g., a data inventory) for one or more data assets utilized by a particular organization; (2) generate a respective data inventory for each of the one or more data assets; and (3) map one or more relationships between one or more aspects of the data inventory, the one or more data assets, etc. within the data model.

  • Publication number: 20210336996
    Abstract: The disclosed systems facilitate collection and management of personal data management documentation requirements and associated data. A master questionnaire is used to solicit information regarding documentation requirements for several contexts in a single interaction and responsive data can be mapped to questionnaires and/or datasets for particular contexts, such as jurisdictions and business sectors. The system can generate graphical user interfaces for presenting the documentation requirement data for a particular context by generating an interface with navigational elements for various contexts, detecting browser state data indicating user manipulation of one or more such elements, and generating a subsequent graphical user interface based on the browser context data.

  • Publication number: 20210314364
    Abstract: A data transfer analysis system is disclosed that analyzes data transfer log entries to determine whether a data transfer is authorized. The system determines information about the data assets involved in the data transfer (e.g., network address, geographical location, etc.) and uses a data map to determine if data transfers are authorized between the two data assets. If not, the system may take one or more actions, such as generating a notification, terminating the data transfer, restricting the access of the user that initiated the transfer, modifying network communications capabilities between the assets to prevent future transfers, and storing metadata that can be used to prevent future such transfers.
