CPRA Compliance Software from Netwrix

The California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), which amended and expanded the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), came into force on January 1, 2023. This regulation strengthens privacy rights for California residents, imposes stricter obligations on organizations, and establishes the California Privacy Protection Agency (CPPA) to enforce compliance.

Any company that collects, processes, or shares the personal information of California residents may be subject to CPRA requirements, regardless of where the business is headquartered. With personal data dispersed across cloud and on-premises systems, ensuring proper protection and compliance can be a major challenge without CPRA compliance software.

The CPRA establishes strict requirements around data protection, consumer rights, and breach notification. Achieving compliance requires ongoing visibility and governance of sensitive data, identities, and permissions across your IT ecosystem. While no single tool covers all aspects of the regulation, Netwrix solutions empower you to address the most critical requirements, reduce risks, and demonstrate compliance effectively.

Identify the exact location of CPRA-regulated data

Discover which files and systems contain California residents’ personal information, including sensitive categories like Social Security numbers, financial records, and precise geolocation data. Ensure proper governance policies are applied before exposure leads to noncompliance or data loss.

Automatically remove excessive permissions

Set up automated workflows that revoke risky permissions, such as broad group access (e.g., Everyone), and move sensitive files to secure storage. Reduce the risk of accidental disclosure and proactively strengthen compliance posture.

Respond quickly and accurately to CPRA data subject requests (DSARs). With Netwrix, you can automatically discover and export all personal data linked to an individual, whether the request is for access, correction, or deletion, while saving significant time and costs on this recurring compliance task.
