Meeting the World's Strictest Privacy Regulation
The EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) sets the global benchmark for personal data protection. It applies to any organization — regardless of location — that offers goods or services to, or monitors the behavior of, individuals in the European Union.
Penalties reach the greater of €20 million or 4% of global annual turnover, with significant reputational and operational consequences for non-compliance. Regulators across all 27 EU member states actively enforce the regulation.
CyberAlpha helps controllers and processors achieve and sustain GDPR compliance — from lawful basis analysis and Records of Processing Activities (RoPA) through Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIAs), data subject rights operations, and 72-hour breach notification playbooks.

Typical GDPR Compliance Gaps
Missing RoPA
No Article 30 record, or one that is incomplete and not updated as processing activities change.
Unclear Lawful Basis
Defaulting to consent when legitimate interest or contract would apply — or vice versa.
Unmapped Transfers
International transfers without SCCs, TIAs, or Schrems II-compliant safeguards post-Privacy Shield.
DSR Gaps
No process to handle access, erasure, or portability requests within the one-month deadline.
No Breach Playbook
Inability to make a defensible 72-hour notification decision creates systemic regulatory risk.
Weak Processor Contracts
Article 28 clauses missing from vendor agreements that process personal data on your behalf.
