We supply, implement and support essential technology, systems and platforms that will help you run your business better, securely manage and report on access to information and those solutions can all be found listed here. As the quote below from a compliance specialist advises, none of these is a silver bullet, but they are all an essential part is responsibly managing access to information within your business.

Please see our Privacy Policy to understand our involvement and responsibility with our customers’ data.

Will technology solve all my PoPI problems?

“Since the publishing of the effective date of the PoPI Act next year there has been an upsurge of technology providers claiming that their solutions will solve potential customers PoPI problems. In our more than seven years’ experience implementing PoPI we can categorically state that no one technical solution will be the silver bullet to solve for all requirements inferred from the PoPI Act. Technology alone, although an important and crucial component of a PoPI implementation, will not bring you to a state of minimal viable compliance. In order to achieve this, you need to structure a programme with focused resources where you include the technology including security control requirements into the other key workstreams dealing with process design, governance and changes and user adoption.”
