If your organization qualifies as a Significant Data Fiduciary under the DPDP Act, periodic independent data audits are mandatory. The STQC (Standardisation Testing and Quality Certification) directorate sets high standards for these audits. Here are 5 tips to ensure you are ready: Maintain Immutable Logs: Ensure every consent action generates a tamper-proof log. Map Your Data: Maintain a comprehensive and up-to-date data flow map. Test Incident Response: Regularly test your data breach notification procedures. Review Third-Party Contracts: Ensure your data processors are also compliant. Empower Your DPO: Ensure your Data Protection Officer has the resources and independence they need. With ConveyGrid built-in audit trails, you are already halfway there.
