    WHAT IS DSAR?

    What is a Data Subject Access Request?

    A Data Subject Access Request (DSAR) is a legal right that individuals have to request access to the personal information that an organization holds about them. Both customers and employees have the same right to file a DSAR, but employee requests are typically far more complex, encompassing all data both about and created by the individual, such as messages exchanged in collaboration tools like Slack and Microsoft Teams.

    The right to submit a DSAR is granted under a number of laws and regulations around the world, including the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), and Canadian Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA).





    THE PROBLEM

    Why you need to manage DSARs

    With fines running into the millions per incident, and only a short window in which to comply,
    getting ahead of potential DSARs is essential for businesses seeking to avoid regulatory penalties.

    Meet tight timescales

    A broader attack surface creates an overwhelming amount of data for security teams to parse.

    Limit the cost of compliance

    Most expenses incurred by fulfilling DSARs cannot be passed onto the requester, meaning businesses can save costs by being prepared for DSARs before they occur.
