How our Gap Assessment Works

01
Assessment planning

Define the scope of the assessment, including relevant data protection or privacy laws.
Gather relevant documentation, such as privacy notices, policies, and process/procedure documentation. Identify key stakeholders to interview.

02
Gap identification

Our expert consultants will review the organization’s existing practices against the requirements of the relevant data protection or privacy law by interview stakeholders and reviewing relevant documentation. They will identify gaps and areas of non-compliance.

03
Remediation and action plan

A gap assessment report is provided highlighting existing levels of compliance and identifying areas needing improvement. An action plan will be provided to address each gap that will allow an organization to prioritize the gaps based on their impact and risk.

Conducting a gap assessment and improvement plan demonstrates an organization’s commitment to data protection, builds trust with stakeholders, reduces costs by mitigating risks, and ensures compliance with privacy laws.
