GoTrust is helping enterprises strengthen their data-breach preparedness and privacy practices by enabling better visibility, control and management of personal and sensitive information across digital environments.
With the DPDP Rules notified in November 2025 and enforcement, including penalties of up to ₹250 crore, set to take effect by May 2027, enterprises are increasingly focusing on strengthening their privacy frameworks. However, organisations continue to face significant challenges in translating regulatory requirements into operational readiness. Key industry indicators highlight the urgency:
- 70% of organisations continue to face challenges in interpreting the regulation.
- 80% of organisations are yet to update their privacy policies or frameworks.
- The average cost of a data breach in India reached ₹22 crore in 2025, making data protection an increasingly important business priority.
Enterprises are also dealing with personal data spread across disconnected systems and third party platforms, along with manual deletion processes, limited visibility into processors and sub processors, fragmented consent records and unstructured breach-response processes.
GoTrust addresses these challenges through an integrated approach covering Data Discovery, PII Classification, Data Mapping, Risk Assessment and Vendor Risk Management. With 300+ pre-built connectors across databases, data lakes, storage platforms and SaaS applications, the platform helps organisations identify where personal and sensitive information resides and understand how it is being used.
The platform connects discovered data with processing purposes, consent status and data flows, while its Risk Register and Assessment Management capabilities help teams identify, prioritise and track privacy risks. Its Vendor Risk Management capabilities further extend visibility into third-party data access and associated risks.
Commenting on the evolving data privacy landscape, Himanshu Gautam, Founder & CEO, GoTrust, said, “Data privacy is moving beyond a compliance requirement to becoming an important part of enterprise risk management. As organisations adopt AI, cloud platforms and interconnected systems, they need greater visibility into where personal data resides and how it is being used. At GoTrust, our focus is to help enterprises identify risks early and build stronger, more consistent privacy practices.”
The demand for proactive privacy and data security solutions is particularly growing across BFSI, healthcare, e-commerce and consumer platforms, where organisations manage significant volumes of personal and sensitive information. Evolving regulations, third-party exposure and increasing AI adoption are further driving the need for stronger data governance.
GoTrust follows a privacy-focused architecture where customer data remains within the client’s environment and is not used to train external AI models. The platform supports privacy requirements across DPDP, GDPR, UAE PDPL, KSA PDPL, LGPD and CPRA.
Looking ahead, GoTrust aims to help enterprises move towards continuous data discovery, risk monitoring and privacy management, enabling them to identify potential risks early and strengthen their data protection practices.
