The Challenge

25 Years of Citizen Data at Risk

⚠️

Massive Document Repositories

Over 25 years of citizen data across 40+ departments—PDFs, scanned documents, spreadsheets, and legacy databases containing sensitive personal information.

⚠️

Indian Language Complexity

Citizen records in Telugu, Hindi, Urdu, and English, often mixed within single documents. Existing DLP tools couldn't process Indian languages.

⚠️

DPDP Rules 2025 Deadline

With the Digital Personal Data Protection Rules 2025 requiring Significant Data Fiduciaries to demonstrate compliance, the urgency was critical.

⚠️

No Existing Inventory

No systematic understanding of what personal data existed, where it was stored, or how it was being processed across government departments.
