Protiviti has launched a new privacy offering in response to the evolving privacy landscape, which has been exacerbated by the Covid-19 pandemic.

Privacy as a Service, is a managed service privacy offering helping companies assess their privacy needs, implement effective compliance measures and respond to new and changing regulations.

"You cannot have privacy without security - the two go hand in hand. In the current environment where employees are working remotely all over the world, it's more important than ever that businesses have comprehensive policies, controls and assessments in place and that privacy concerns aren't pushed to the backburner," said Curt Dalton, managing director and global leader of Protiviti's Security and Privacy practice.

"All industries are compelled to enhance their privacy protections due to increased regulation, from GDPR to the Privacy Shield, and from rising client expectations for firms to protect their data. Companies, especially small and mid-sized organizations, are struggling to find the right talent to achieve and maintain compliance."

"Protiviti PraaS service was born out of client demands for a cost-effective, sustainable privacy solution for businesses that lack the budget and capabilities for a full in-house privacy team," said Terry Jost, a Protiviti managing director and leader of the firm's Managed Security Services.
