Many of the world’s privacy laws give individuals the right to make requests about their data, such as the right to access under the GDPR and CCPA. Organizations must redact other’s personal information and sensitive corporate information before providing the requested information to the requestor. The combination of OneTrust Data Redaction and OneTrust’s DSAR Automation technology integrates advanced data redaction to fully automate the DSAR process with deep data discovery, redaction, ID verification, and secure communication technologies.
