Privacy, cyber security, governance, compliance and AI accountability — run as one programme instead of four. We turn regulatory obligation into controls that work in your systems, and evidence that survives an audit.
Illustrative Digital Trust dashboard: an overall posture score of 92 out of 100, framework readiness of 94 percent for DPDPA, 98 percent for ISO 27001, 81 percent for ISO 42001 and 92 percent for SOC 2, with a control activity feed showing consent propagation verified across 41 systems.
None of these are failures of intent. They are what happens when obligations arrive faster than operating models, and when four functions each solve a quarter of the same problem.

Privacy sits with Legal, security with IT, risk with Finance, AI with nobody. Each writes its own policy, runs its own assessment and asks the same business unit the same question in a different format.

The notice promises deletion in thirty days while three warehouses keep silent copies. The consent banner records a choice no downstream system reads. The gap is invisible until someone tests it.

DPDPA, CERT-In directions, the EU AI Act and sectoral rules have all landed inside four years. Programmes designed for one regime are being asked to answer for six.

Models are making consequential decisions about customers and employees while the inventory is incomplete, the impact assessments are unwritten, and nobody can reconstruct why a decision was made.
shadow AI tools typically found in an enterprise estate
9 days
Enterprise deals stall on security questionnaires answered from memory, sub-processor lists that do not exist, and reports the buyer's risk team will not accept.

Controls that passed an audit stop operating within months because nothing tests them until the next one. The certificate stays valid while the substance behind it erodes.
typical delay in detecting a lapsed control
Each capability stands alone, but none of them is priced or delivered as an island. Implement a control once and it satisfies every framework it touches — cutting the cost of every certification after the first.
Turn data protection law into working product behaviour.
We map where personal data actually lives, rebuild consent and rights flows into your product, and leave you with a privacy programme that survives an audit and a board question.
Defensible security, built around how your business actually loses money.
Threat-led security strategy, architecture and control design that prioritises the handful of scenarios that would genuinely hurt you — not a generic checklist of 300 controls.
Ship AI you can explain, defend and audit.
An AI management system aligned to ISO 42001 and the EU AI Act — model inventory, risk classification, evaluation, human oversight and the evidence trail regulators will ask for.
Certification without the eighteen-month scramble.
Readiness, implementation and audit support for ISO 27001, ISO 27701, ISO 42001, SOC 2 and PCI DSS — run as a project with dates, owners and a definition of done.
One operating model for privacy, security, risk and AI accountability.
We design the committees, policies, decision rights and reporting lines that let trust obligations be managed as one programme instead of four competing ones.
A named, qualified DPO — accountable, available and independent.
Statutory Data Protection Officer capability delivered as a service: named point of contact, regulator liaison, DPIA sign-off and board reporting, without a full-time hire.
From DPDPA and CERT-In directions to ISO 42001 and SOC 2 — implemented against one control set so a single piece of evidence answers several questions at once.
India
India's national data protection law. It applies to any organisation processing digital personal data in India, and to foreign entities offering goods or services to data principals in India.
International
The international standard for information security management. Certification is the most widely recognised evidence that an organisation manages security systematically rather than incidentally.
International
The privacy extension to ISO 27001. It converts a security management system into a privacy information management system with controller and processor obligations built in.
United States (globally recognised)
An independent attestation on the design and operating effectiveness of your controls against the Trust Services Criteria. The default security evidence requested by North American enterprise buyers.
International
The first certifiable management system standard for artificial intelligence. It gives organisations a structured, auditable way to govern AI development and deployment.
Access review, encryption standards, incident response, vendor due diligence — the same underlying controls satisfy ISO 27001, SOC 2, DPDPA and PCI DSS. We map them once, so your team operates one programme and reports to many.
A hospital cannot take its clinical systems offline for a security programme. A plant cannot stop the line. A GCC answers to two regulators at once. We build for those constraints rather than around them.
Patient trust is clinical infrastructure.
Hospital networks, digital health platforms and life sciences organisations carry the most sensitive data category there is, under simultaneous Indian, US and European obligations.
Regulatory density meets real-time expectations.
Banks, NBFCs, insurers, fintechs and capital markets firms operate under the most prescriptive supervisory regime in India, with regulators that audit rather than advise.
Trust is the shortest path through enterprise procurement.
For product companies, security and privacy posture is not overhead — it is the thing that determines whether an enterprise deal closes this quarter or next year.
When the line stops, everything else is academic.
Manufacturers face converging IT and OT risk, extended supplier networks, and customer security requirements arriving through the supply chain rather than from a regulator.
Consultancies all promise expertise and partnership. These are the specific, checkable things that make us different — including the revenue we refuse.
We hold no reseller agreements, referral fees or vendor commissions of any kind. When we recommend a platform — or recommend that you do not need one — there is nothing behind the advice but the analysis.
No vendor revenue, by policy
Every consultant has operated in the role they now advise on. Our architects have run production estates; our DPOs have held statutory appointments. The person in your first meeting is the person doing the work.
No pyramid staffing model
We do not report a control as effective because a policy describes it. We test consent propagation, restore from backups, attempt the privilege escalation. Findings are what the test showed.
Evidence-based findings only
Our unified library cross-maps over 400 controls across DPDPA, ISO 27001, ISO 27701, ISO 42001, SOC 2, NIST CSF and PCI DSS — so a control implemented once satisfies every obligation it touches.
One control, many frameworks
DPDPA is not GDPR with different names, and CERT-In's six-hour clock has no international equivalent. We build for the obligations that actually apply here, then map outward to global frameworks.
India-first, globally mapped
Our engagement model does not end at document handover. We run the internal audit, sit in the certification audit, and close the nonconformities. Accountability that ends before the exam is not accountability.
Present at every audit, by design
No discovery phase that produces a 240-page report nobody reads. Every phase ends in artefacts your team can act on, and the plan is published before we start.
We establish which obligations genuinely apply to you, what your buyers and regulators will ask for, and where the organisation is starting from. Most programmes go wrong here by assuming scope rather than establishing it.
Systems, data, vendors and controls documented as they actually are — through interviews, tooling and direct inspection. This phase routinely surfaces systems no one had on a list.
Gaps identified against every applicable framework at once, quantified by risk and sized by effort — so remediation is sequenced by consequence rather than by chapter number.
Target-state architecture, controls and operating model specified tightly enough for your teams to build from — not a set of principles that leaves every hard decision open.
Delivery alongside your engineers rather than over email. Controls are built, tested and evidenced, and the evidence pipeline is instrumented as the controls go live.
Internal audit, certification support and the operating rhythm that keeps the programme healthy — because a control environment that decays between audits was never really working.
Not sure which phase you are actually at? The free maturity assessment places you on this map in fifteen minutes.
Take the maturity assessment(opens the assessment platform in a new tab)Written by the people running the engagements. What changed, what it means operationally, and what we would do about it — including where the honest answer is that nobody knows yet.
The choice is decided by who is buying, not by which framework is better. A practical decision guide, plus why sequencing ISO first makes the SOC 2 cheaper and the reverse is not true.
Not a table of statutory contrasts. The seven places where the two regimes diverge enough to change your data model, your consent screens and your engineering backlog.
The Act set the principles. The Rules set the engineering requirements. Here is what changes in your systems — notice structure, breach clocks, and verifiable parental consent.
New analysis as regulation, standards and enforcement move — usually within days of a change that matters.
The designation is discretionary, so the useful question is not whether you are one but what it would cost to be treated as one. Three additional duties, and why we tell large consumer platforms to assume it.
The requirement is not the expensive part — the architecture is. A three-tier design that meets 180 days in Indian jurisdiction at roughly a fifth of the licensing-led cost.
Most SOC 2 reports are filed unread, which makes them a compliance ritual rather than assurance. Five checks any procurement or risk reviewer can run, and what each one catches.
Not marketing collateral dressed as templates. These are the registers, checklists and methodologies we run on client programmes, generalised for reuse and versioned when frameworks change.
A working risk register with a pre-populated scenario library, quantified exposure model and treatment tracking — not an empty template.
Tiering model plus four proportionate question sets, so a low-risk vendor answers eight questions and a critical one gets genuine scrutiny.
A DPDPA-conformant notice set — customer, employee, vendor and website — with itemised processing tables and multilingual structure built in.
A threshold test, a full DPIA template and an AI-specific impact assessment aligned to ISO 42001 — sized so teams finish them.
Assess once against a unified control set, and see your position against ISO 27001, ISO 27701, ISO 42001, SOC 2, DPDPA and NIST CSF simultaneously.
The 96-point operational checklist we use on day one of every DPDPA engagement, with evidence requirements per item.
Most organisations discover their first real gap during an audit or an incident. The assessment surfaces it in fifteen minutes instead — scored, benchmarked and prioritised, with nothing to buy.
Your position across privacy, security, governance, risk and AI accountability, scored against sector benchmarks rather than a generic scale.
The specific gaps that matter most for your sector and size, ordered by risk reduction rather than by framework clause number.
Where you stand against DPDPA, ISO 27001, ISO 42001 and SOC 2 — and which of them your buyers are most likely to ask for next.
No sales call required to see your results. Take it, read the output, and decide independently whether you want to talk to anyone.
Straight answers, including where the honest one is "it depends" — with what it depends on.
Ask a practitioner directly. First responses come from the person who would run your engagement, within one business day.
