The privacy compliance industry shows a significant level of disparity concerning multiple jurisdictions. For example, different regions, say, Virginia, Colorado, California, Utah, Connecticut, New York, and others have rules and regulations that vary slightly in terms of privacy compliance. The industry needs a uniform privacy compliance platform to accommodate the disparity. Essert, a Silicon Valley startup, has successfully managed over a thousand businesses worldwide with respect to compliance operations. Moreover, Essert is the only startup extending a platform-based approach toward privacy compliance, where multiple jurisdictions are managed accurately.

A major construction and real estate enterprise based in Brazil encountered an unexpected challenge. The firm had a stint with a privacy consultancy for implementing adequacy. However, the 14-month-long association could have been more satisfactory. Instead, it was merely a generic diagnostic report. The roles and responsibilities needed to be clearly defined.

Mostly, the recruitment and HR processes continue to function on conventional systems. Therefore, from a contemporary technological perspective, legacy systems are usually unsafe and archaic.

Sometimes, the original documents are brought to the workplace to take copies. The information is now accessible to firms and third-party providers.

There is no denying that the gap is widening between privacy regulations and technological innovations. Despite the abundance of technical and legal experts, high levels of expertise are still quite difficult to find.

Their CEO Paul Benedek explains: “The biggest challenge we see facing our clients is the ever-growing gap between security and the legal operations and the expert skill gap in between them.
