Description
DPDP Act Internal Audit Services
By Cybervault – Qualified & Independent Auditors
Full Service Description
India’s Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act, 2023 establishes a comprehensive framework for the lawful processing, protection, and governance of personal data. Organizations acting as Data Fiduciaries or Data Processors are required to implement strong controls to protect personal data, respect data principal rights, and demonstrate accountability.
Cybervault offers independent DPDP Act Internal Audit services through the Make Audit Easy platform to help organizations evaluate their compliance posture and readiness under the DPDP Act.
Our audit follows a risk-based and control-driven approach, assessing governance structures, policies, technical safeguards, and operational practices related to personal data processing. We examine compliance across the full data lifecycle—collection, storage, use, sharing, retention, and deletion—while identifying gaps against DPDP obligations.
The audit delivers practical and actionable insights, enabling management to remediate risks, strengthen privacy controls, and demonstrate due diligence to regulators and stakeholders.
