Security Awards 2023

Feb23083 Founded in 2018, DataBench provides automated data mapping and privacy management solutions that are fast, compliant and easy to use. The platform was created to take the time, cost, extra resources, and stress out of meeting data privacy compliance requirements, allowing business owners to focus on what they do best: running their business. At the beginning, DataBench was dedicated to researching the global wave of data privacy compliance and how the global vendor market responded to these changes. This observation revealed that most businesses are unaware of the full extent of the applications and systems they have running across their organisation, so they fail to fully understand where the personal data they handle sits within their business. The company also noticed that many organisations chose to address the privacy legislation changes with manual solutions by hiring up to six extra staff members to deal with the additional workload. Even with the extra staff, most of these businesses were falling behind on mandated timeframes, needing sign-off from multiple departments to release information and failing their legislation obligations. In contrast, businesses that instead chose to use automated solutions were able to reduce their staff load and turn over workflow in one to three days. This is what inspired Founder David Christmas to design DataBench, a leading automated data privacy platform, to help businesses across Australia and New Zealand automate the way they deal with privacy and personal data legislation. The platform is designed to manage data privacy and governance from a single dashboard, allowing organisations to meet the ever-changing data privacy requirements with ease. Utilising smart technology, it automates business processes by scanning all data sources to identify traces of personal information, saving them significant time and money. DateBench is not only beneficial to businesses in this way but also to the public. The platform automates consumer requests, allowing them to view and remove their own data at the click of a button. This allows individuals to regain control of their data and saves businesses the time they would usually spend responding to data-related requests manually. Working in a competitive industry, DataBench works to stand out from its competitors in many ways. Firstly, the company believes in investing in technology that provides clients with high-quality and unique solutions to privacy legislations, driving the growth and expansion of the business. Alongside this, DataBench offers ongoing technical support to ensure customers are always able to use its solutions effectively. Secondly, with privacy legislation constantly changing and evolving, it is crucial for DataBench to ensure its solutions are up to date with regulations and that they reflect the latest in Federal and State Legislation and Acts. Lastly, with a small and dedicated team, the company is committed to delivering consistent outcomes that always exceed expectations, making it a trusted partner of choice in its industry. As a result of its innovative data automation platform that helps businesses take control of their data management with ease, DataBench has won Best Privacy Discovery and Compliance Automation Solution in the Security Awards 2023. The company continues to assist businesses across Australia and New Zealand in tackling new challenges that emerge as the landscape changes.
