Optiv + Private Equity Firm = Decreased Risk for its Portfolio Companies The Situation – meet GDPR compliance requirements in four months When you’re managing multiple global portfolio companies, protecting critical data is a must. Driven by the EU’s GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) compliance requirements, a leading private equity firm needed a 360-degree view of how citizen data was being processed and stored. They had to use existing procedures to analyze all the data – without the aid of intrusive agents – and had only four months to get it all done. The Solution – all-round analysis for internal & third-party risk management (TPRM) Knowing that the firm needed a robust and repeatable ‘at scale’ assessment process, we developed a tailor-made, tiered ranking system to identify critical metrics. Using both ‘inside-out’ and ‘outside-in’ approaches, the inside out consisted of automated questionnaires combined with direct interviews, while the outside-in utilized offline configuration reviews, internet-based data leakage analysis and a neutral, external third-party view into risks. Our client was now armed with risk-based reports for each individual portfolio company, as well as a detailed roll-up report showing trends across all assessed companies. Fully covering all board, C-suite, and operational data levels, these reports contained all the information they needed to make knowledgeable decisions to lower overall business risk.
