Thinking strategically about data protection - creating trust, strengthening structures
Data protection is much more than just complying with legal requirements. When done right, it strengthens customer trust, protects innovation and supports digital transformation. For many companies, however, data protection is still a reactive issue - we help to turn it into a strategic success factor.

From mandatory program to strategic function

The GDPR has put data protection at the heart of many project plans. However, true added value is only created when data protection is not seen as an isolated compliance discipline, but as an integral part of business processes, product development and IT architecture.

Successful organizations today no longer ask: "What do we have to do?"
But rather: "How do we shape data protection as part of our digital strength?"

The decisive levers for practiced data protection

At DI Experts, we see in practice that data protection works when the following components work together:

  • Early involvement in projects: e.g. software development, process automation or cloud migration
  • Privacy by design & by default: data protection is taken into account - not added as an afterthought
  • Clearly define responsibilities: Who is responsible? Who decides? Who documents?
  • Transparency and user orientation: Communicating data protection clearly creates trust - internally and externally

Our consulting approach

We help you not only to implement data protection, but to actively shape it:

  • Maturity level analyses & data protection strategy
  • Integration in IT architecture and process design
