Navigating the NDMO Framework

Follow the roadmap to data compliance in Saudi Arabia

The NDMO is the regulatory authority responsible for data governance in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). NDMO enforces the PDPL, the first-ever comprehensive data protection law in the KSA. It aims to regulate the collection, processing, storage, and transfer of personal data by public and private organizations in the KSA. This framework spans the data lifecycle from creation, storage, movement, usage, and disposal.

BigID is uniquely positioned to enable organizations to comply with PDPL. With BigID, organizations can find, classify, and map all sensitive data to the KSA, automate data rights requests and risk assessments, and reduce risk with data retention policies and data breach management.

Shine a Light on KSA Data

Automatically find and inventory your most sensitive, critical, and high-priority KSA data - wherever it lives.

BigID helps organizations meet PDPL requirements set by the NDMO framework with unmatched data discovery and classification to find the data that matters most to the KSA. 

Get advanced data discovery and classification to find KSA resident and household data: whether it's critical, regulated, personal, secrets, passwords, IP, financial, or more.  Get more accurate results every time with ML-driven data classification - across your entire data landscape (from on-prem to cloud to everywhere in between) for structured and unstructured data.

Automate Data Rights Requests for KSA Consumers

Automate KSA data rights fulfillment from access to deletion

Dynamically manage Data Subject Access Request (DSAR) at scale by discovering, classifying, and connecting KSA data to specific user profiles to automate data subject access requests, validate data deletion, and generate DSAR pdf reports. Give customers the right to choose what they do with their data and comply with PDPL.

Map & Inventory Data by KSA Individual

Build a Record of Processing Activities (RoPa) for Data Mapping

Identify and document data inventory to visually map data across the organization to assess how data is processed, transferred, and shared to reduce risk.

Discover all personal and sensitive KSA information by identity, map the data relationships across sources, and visualize how data flows across your organization. Maintain an up-to-date and current documentation of how KSA consumer data flows to comply with the NDMO framework.

Conduct Privacy Impact Assessments for the NDMO

Quickly assess the risk associated with your data processing activities

Manage privacy risk assessments in a centralized location to estimate the risk associated with data inventory (owner, purpose, stored, used, shared, and maintained) and comply with privacy protection regulations like PDPL. 

Establish a systemized process with industry-standard templates to streamline collaboration with data owners. Eliminate the manual process of documenting PIAs with automated end-to-end fulfillment.

retention

Enforce retention policies and remediation workflows for PDPL

Automate and validate end-to-end data management at scale

Enforce policies around sensitive KSA data and kick off remediation workflows with the Data Remediation App. Use the RoPA Data Mapping App to map sensitive and regulated data processing and sharing to assess the risk profile for a business process. Use the Data Retention App to detect data retention violations and carry out remediation wherever sensitive data exists. Identify and clean up duplicate and ROT data to minimize attack surfaces.

Enable Zero Trust for KSA Data

Restrict access to system components and sensitive data by business need to know

Reduce risk by managing access to sensitive and critical KSA consumer data. Easily find over-permissioned and over-exposed data across your entire data landscape: mitigate unauthorized use, reduce the risk of data leaks or breaches, and get to a least privileged permissions model for zero trust.

Use the Access Intelligence App and ML-based insight to identify, flag, investigate, and prioritize overexposed data – then revoke access rights from groups to reduce the risk of data leakage and comply with PDPL.

Simplify Breach Incident Response for PDPL

Determine breach impact & streamline incident response

Assess the scope of a breach, identify impacted users and determine appropriate response plans. Determine whose data and attributes are impacted by a breach and systems and applications that have accessed the breached data source.

Comply with PDPL breach reporting requirements to minimize financial, legal, and brand impact through automated workflows to facilitate response and notification.

 

WHITE PAPER

How BigID Addresses the NDMO Framework to Achieve PDPL Compliance

The NDMO PDPL regulates how organizations collect, process, and protect personal data in KSA across 15 domains spanning the full data lifecycle.

See how BigID maps to every domain, from classification and data mapping to PIAs, DSRs, and breach response, so your teams can operationalize compliance instead of chasing it.
