All 33 sections of the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 are mapped to features in Data Rakshaq. From S.4 grounds for processing and S.5 multi-locale notices through S.9 children's ring-fence, S.10 SDF and DPIA obligations, S.11–S.14 data principal rights, S.16 cross-border transfer and the Rule 4 retention floor — every requirement has a corresponding screen, workflow, or policy enforcement. Pre-mapped with 45 NBFC-grade processing activities, 23 legitimate-use sub-clauses, and a 92-point audit catalog, the platform converts a dense legal text into a section-by-section closure scorecard your DPO can defend to auditors and the board.
DPDP penalties run up to ₹250 crore per violation — failure to maintain reasonable security safeguards, failure to notify a breach, failure of SDF duties, mishandling of children's data. Data Rakshaq is engineered as a penalty shield. Every consent, every withdrawal, every DSAR, every breach, every cross-border transfer is captured as an immutable, SHA-256 hash-chained, tamper-evident record. UPDATE and DELETE on the audit log are physically blocked. When the Data Protection Board calls, you don't scramble — you export. Court-admissible evidence bundles ship with a manifest hash that verifies the export was not modified post-extraction.
You cannot protect what you cannot see. Data Rakshaq's PII Scanner crawls databases, file shares, S3 buckets, and SaaS applications to surface every piece of personal data in your estate — classified by sensitivity, scored, and tied back to a registered processing purpose. The output drives a live Record of Processing Activities (RoPA) — not a yearly Excel exercise. Discovery, consent purposes, and the vendor map combine into a continuously updated RoPA exportable as XLSX or PDF, formula-injection safe, and board-friendly.
Capture consent the way DPDP requires it — Free, Specific, Informed, Unconditional, Unambiguous, scored on every grant. Notices authored once and rendered in all 23 Schedule VIII languages, with per-locale revision history and SHA-256 content hashes baked into every consent receipt. Data Principals can withdraw any consent per purpose, register nominees, and exercise rights of access, correction, and erasure from a single OTP-secured portal that handles six principal types — customer, employee, vendor, applicant, partner, contractor. Cross-border transfers are blocked at configuration time. Children's data is ring-fenced atomically on guardian-link. Retention policies enforce the Rule 4 seven-year floor.
When the regulator or the data principal asks "prove it," Data Rakshaq answers in minutes. A SHA-256 hash-chained, append-only audit log preserves every action across the platform — UPDATE and DELETE are physically blocked. The verify-audit-chain CLI walks the entire chain on demand; export bundles ship with manifest hashes for court-admissible evidence. Breach response runs as a workflow, not a scramble. T₀ stamps automatically on incident logging; CERT-In notification fires at 6 hours, DPB at 72 hours, principals at 7 days — all templated, all tracked, closed with a Day-30 RCA and remediation certificate. DPIA is a workflow with seven enforcement gates and four-eyes Separation of Duties. The Live Compliance Meter gives the DPO a per-section closure score, refreshed in real time.
Data Rakshaq operates across nine integrated compliance pillars that together cover every dimension of the DPDP Act 2023. Data Discovery and Classification map every PII and SPI element across structured, unstructured, cloud, and on-prem sources, while RoPA, Consent Management, and Data Principal Rights workflows govern lawful processing end-to-end. Breach Management closes the 72-hour DPDPB notification window automatically; Governance & DPO, Significant Data Fiduciary, and Cross-border Transfer modules enforce accountability, annual audits, and restricted-country safeguards. Together, these nine pillars convert a dense regulatory mandate into a single, defensible operating framework — purpose-built for Indian Data Fiduciaries and audit-ready from day one.
