Dapian is a secure data protection tool that simplifies Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIAs), Data Flows, Equality Impact Assessments, and Data Ethics Assessments.
The DPIA Core Module is a powerful Data Protection tool designed to simplify Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIAs), Data Flows, Equality Impact Assessments, and Data Ethics Assessments. Users are guided through screening questions and standardized templates, ensuring thorough assessments with expert-written guidance.
The module includes automated risk and compliance management, sending reminders and highlighting risks to improve GDPR adherence. Collaborative workflows allow teams to assign tasks, request input, and obtain sign-offs from Information Asset Owners, Information Governance professionals, and project partners. Integrated data flow mapping documents how information moves across the organisation, enhancing transparency and decision-making. The module also features a guided screening tool to determine if a DPIA is required and the appropriate type, alongside case management tools to support Data Protection Officers in maintaining oversight throughout the process.
Using Dapian’s DPIA Core Module, organisations can efficiently manage DSARs and streamline their DPIA processes, ensuring GDPR compliance with minimal administrative effort. The automation of risk identification and reminders reduces human error, while collaborative features facilitate accountability across teams. By documenting data flows and using guided screening tools, organisations maintain comprehensive and traceable assessments, supporting audits and regulatory reviews. The module is built for scale, with flexible UK-based hosting and secure Single Sign-On (SSO) integration, ensuring accessibility and protection of sensitive data. Overall, this GDPR software empowers organisations to implement best practice in data protection, reduce privacy risks, and demonstrate accountability confidently.
Staff are able to escalate complex DPIAs to IG and Data Protection colleagues for input/sign off as well as collaborate with colleagues.
Share DPIAs outside your organisation. The system supports a number of output options. Additionally, completed DPIAs can be marked as publicly available to help other organisations.
Staff will have access to our collaborative library of example and best practice DPIAs from across the public and private sector to support them in completing their own.
Dapian ensures that there is a Data Flow in place which documents how data moves through the system. Where a Data Flow doesn’t exist, it handholds the user through producing one.
To help you decide if a DPIA is needed, you can use our screening tool. At the end of completing a short questionairre, our software will tell you if a DPIA is required and what type of DPIA would best suit your needs.
Our workflow and case management functionality supports Data Protection Officers (DPOs) in maintaining oversight and responsibility for the process.
Designed for both experts and non-experts, Dapian guides users through the DPIA process, automates risk identification, facilitates collaboration, and ensures GDPR compliance—all in one cloud-based solution.
We now offer a range of UK-based hosting options to align with your governance, risk, and performance requirements.
Dapian’s SSO Bolt-on allows your team to log in using their existing company credentials — no extra passwords needed. It’s secure, efficient, and easy to set up.
