India Data Protection & Regulatory

DPDP Act compliance, operationalized.

A Data Fiduciary's control panel for India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 and the CERT-In Directions — breach deadlines, DPIAs, Significant Data Fiduciary classification, and regulator-ready audit packs, deployable fully on-premises.

The problem

The clock starts at detection.

The DPDP Act gives you 72 hours to notify the Data Protection Board, and CERT-In expects 6 — deadlines that spreadsheet-based privacy programs discover mid-incident. Most global GRC tools treat Indian regulation as an afterthought, if at all.

The solution

Built for Indian Data Fiduciaries.

Offload ships a dedicated DPDP module — not a checkbox bolted onto a Western framework — so breach response, DPIAs, SDF obligations, and audit evidence follow the actual statutory workflow, with the deadlines tracked for you.

Capabilities

What the DPDP module does

  • Breach notification lifecycle (Rule 7): detect → declare → assess → report → close, with 72-hour Data Protection Board and 6-hour CERT-In deadline tracking and watchdog alarms
  • Rule 7(2) nine-section breach report validation; CERT-In Annexure I across 18 incident categories
  • DPIA (Data Protection Impact Assessment) lifecycle satisfying Section 13 obligations
  • Significant Data Fiduciary (SDF) classification with the additional Section 10 obligations surfaced
  • Vendor / data-processor due-diligence assessments
  • SCF-mapped readiness scoring with a Section 8(6) penalty-exposure estimate
  • Immutable audit-event log and generated audit packs for the Board or your DPO
  • Transfer impact analysis for cross-border data flows

Why regulated Indian buyers choose Offload

On-premises deployment keeps personal data and evidence inside your environment — critical for BFSI and data- localization requirements. And because DPDP sits in the same platform as cloud, code, and vulnerability management, your technical security posture and your privacy obligations live in one system, not two disconnected tools.

FAQ

Common questions

Does Offload Security help with DPDP Act compliance?

Yes. Offload includes a dedicated DPDP module built for Data Fiduciaries: breach notification with statutory deadlines, DPIA lifecycle, Significant Data Fiduciary classification, vendor due diligence, readiness scoring, and regulator-ready audit packs.

What are the DPDP and CERT-In breach-reporting deadlines?

Under the DPDP Act and CERT-In Directions, breaches must be reported to the Data Protection Board within 72 hours and to CERT-In within 6 hours. Offload tracks both clocks with watchdog alarms as deadlines approach.

Can it run on-premises for regulated data?

Yes. Offload deploys fully on-premises, so personal data, security findings, and evidence never leave your environment — a common requirement for BFSI and regulated organizations in India.

Offload also maps findings to ISO 27001, SOC 2, PCI DSS 4.0.1, GDPR, ISO 27701, and NIST frameworks, and applies RBI cyber-security context to relevant findings. This page describes the dedicated DPDP module; framework coverage is described on the Compliance & Risk module page.
