DPDP 2023 compliance
that's audit-ready
by default.
Shield is India's most comprehensive DPDP 2023 compliance platform. Consent management, Data Points Registry, RoPA generation, DSAR workflows, and vendor risk monitoring — all in a zero-data-egress, on-premise architecture.
Why DPDP 2023 is harder
than it looks
The Act covers consent, data governance, rights management, and vendor oversight. Each has strict requirements — and the penalties for failure are severe.
Consent Is Not One-and-Done
DPDP 2023 requires explicit, purpose-specific, revocable consent for each processing activity. A cookie banner or onboarding checkbox does not meet the standard. You need a full consent lifecycle.
Data Principal Rights Are Mandatory
Customers can request access to their data, correction, erasure, and grievance redressal — within defined timelines. Without automated DSAR workflows, you cannot comply at scale.
Penalties Are Real — ₹250 Crore
The DPDP Act 2023 empowers the Data Protection Board to impose penalties of up to ₹250 crore per violation. Non-compliance is not a future risk — it is a present liability.
Five modules. Full DPDP
2023 coverage.
Consent Vault
Collect, store, and manage consent artefacts with SHA-256 tamper-proof signatures. Full lifecycle management: creation, renewal, withdrawal. Webhook-based renewal notifications fire 30 days before expiry. Every artefact is timestamped, hashed, and court-defensible.
Data Points Registry & RoPA
Map every personal data field to its purpose, lawful basis under DPDP 2023, processing location, retention period, and data principal. Auto-generate Records of Processing Activity (RoPA) reports for the Data Protection Board — with a single click.
Data Principal Rights (DSAR)
Manage Data Subject Access Requests across access, correction, nomination, and erasure rights. Automated workflows, SLA tracking, and escalation paths ensure you meet the Act's response timelines without manual intervention at scale.
Vendor Data Risk Monitoring
Monitor every third-party data processor against news signals, breach disclosures, and risk indicators. Flag high-risk vendors for DPO review and approval before they become your organisation's liability under the Act.
DPDP Readiness Dashboard
Real-time readiness score across all DPDP obligations. Track gaps, assign remediation owners, monitor progress, and generate board-ready compliance reports for your DPO, CISO, and Board Risk Committee.
Zero Data Egress Architecture
Shield deploys via an on-premise agent within your infrastructure. No personal data leaves your environment at any point. This satisfies data localisation requirements and makes audit responses straightforward for regulated entities.
