What We Do — And Why It Matters

The Digital Personal Data Protection Act 2023 is India's comprehensive data privacy law — and it applies to every organization that processes personal data of Indian residents, regardless of size. The Data Protection Board can impose penalties up to ₹250 crore per incident. We make compliance achievable and practical for organizations of every size.

Our certified professionals follow internationally recognized methodologies — OWASP, NIST, PTES, OSSTMM and OWASP MASVS. Every engagement is manual-first: real experts thinking like attackers, not just running automated scanners. We are CERT-In empanelled — every report we issue is accepted by RBI, SEBI, IRDAI and all major Indian regulators.

  • Personal data inventory and data flow mapping
  • Privacy notice and consent mechanism drafting
  • Data principal rights process implementation
