What Cyber Essentials Does
A self-guided compliance platform your team operates internally — no external auditors required.
Internal Gap Analysis Tool
A structured, guided questionnaire that walks your DPO through your current data practices and maps the gaps against PDPA obligations — generating a clear action plan.
DPO Training Modules
Bite-sized, scenario-based training content to upskill your Data Protection Officer and build PDPA awareness across your team — at your own pace.
Compliance Checklists
Pre-built PDPA checklists covering consent, data inventory, retention, protection measures, and breach response — so nothing falls through the cracks.
Data Inventory & Mapping
An interactive tool to document what personal data your business holds, where it is stored, who has access, and how long it is kept.
Alerts & Compliance Notifications
Automated reminders when reviews are due, when checklist items are overdue, or when PDPA guidelines are updated — keeping your compliance on track year-round.
Breach Response Workflow
A step-by-step breach response guide with built-in checklists and timelines, ensuring you meet PDPC's 3-day mandatory notification requirement if an incident occurs.
How It Works
Four clear stages — your team drives the process, the software guides every step.
Run Your Gap Analysis
Your DPO completes a guided self-assessment inside the platform. The tool maps your current practices against PDPA obligations and surfaces exactly where the gaps are.
Work Through the Checklists
Tackle each gap with built-in compliance checklists — covering consent mechanisms, data inventory, retention policies, and staff responsibilities. Tick off tasks as you go.
Train Your DPO & Team
Access structured training modules tailored to PDPA roles and responsibilities. Build a data-aware culture so compliance becomes part of how your business operates.
Stay Compliant with Alerts
Automated notifications remind your DPO when reviews are due, highlight overdue items, and flag updates to PDPA guidelines — so compliance doesn't slip over time.
