DPDP Compliance
Consent Drift
Organizations struggle to prove that data usage matches the "specified purpose" in a Nagarik's original notice.
Erasure Complexity
Finding every digital copy of an Indian user's data across cloud platforms, managed databases, SaaS applications, on-prem systems, and employee endpoints makes fulfilling a “Right to Erasure” request operationally difficult.
Why legacy fails
Most global tools treat India as a subset of GDPR, missing the DPDP Act’s Universal Breach Notification and language-specific notice requirements. Built in the GDPR era, many rely on RegEx-based discovery that struggles with unstructured data and requires heavy manual effort. Modern AI-driven platforms like Matters.AI achieve up to 99% accuracy across on-prem, cloud, SaaS, and endpoints.
Nagarik Data Discovery
Matters continuously discovers and classifies personal data of Indian citizens across Cloud Infrastructure, Managed Databases, SaaS Applications, On-Prem Systems, and Endpoints. This ensures no Shadow PII exists in forgotten systems or unmanaged data stores.
Purpose & Consent Mapping
The agent analyzes real-time data usage patterns to ensure data is used only for the specified purpose for which consent was obtained, immediately identifying purpose drift.
Agentic Request Handling
When a Nagarik submits a Right to Erasure or Data Summary request, Matters automatically maps every location where that data exists and sends approval workflows to the responsible Data Fiduciary via Slack or Email.
Automated Remediation
Once approved, the platform executes automated erasure or access restriction across all integrated systems and applications.
The Matters Standard
This approach embeds DPDP compliance directly into data operations, reducing manual investigation while helping organizations demonstrate “Reasonable Security Safeguards” to regulators and the board.
