Webinar | Doing a Regulator-Ready Gap Analysis

If you want to assure regulators, stakeholders, or customers that you comply with POPIA and PAIA, what better way than to prove that you comply with the Information Regulator’s own checklist (46 for POPIA and 23 for PAIA)? If you have a breach or if someone complains to the regulator about you, the regulator will check its portal. If you have completed the self-assessment, the regulator will look favourably upon you.

Be in a position to fully comply with the Information Regulator’s self assessment

We have developed a process to assess compliance by conducting a gap analysis (at a point in time) against a POPIA and PAIA compliance framework, based on the Information Regulator’s requirements, to determine your organisation’s current level of compliance. We refer to it as a regulator-ready gap analysis. After the gap analysis, you can complete the self-assessment in the portal and be regulator ready.

Join us for this webinar in which we will show you how to know where your gaps are and prove to the regulator that you comply.

Some people call this a compliance or risk assessment, or audit, but we believe the term gap analysis is correct. It is not a personal information impact assessment (PIIA), which is something different. 

Outcomes

• Learn how to conduct a gap analysis effectively by understanding the process. 
• Have the tools you need to do it by accessing them and seeing how they work. 
• Accurately complete the Information Regulator self-assessment by having answers and the documentary proof behind them.
