Liaison Technologies, a provider of cloud-based integration and data management solutions, has exceeded GDPR compliance standards.
The Liaison ALLOY Platform surpasses compliance standards outlined in the European Union’s (EU) new General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) rules that take effect on May 25, according to the company.
ALLOY claims to allow users to protect personal data, gather consent to share data from EU customers, and enable customers to gain access to and erase their personal data as required by GDPR rules.
Liaison’s claims it ‘is unique in the integration space’ since it maintains rigorous controls and audit regimens for a broader scope of data privacy and security frameworks for its ALLOY Platform and for managed and professional services. By using ALLOY to integrate applications and systems, enterprises that store data from EU customers can now comply with GDPR regulations.
ALLOY also enables data process auditing in compliance with GDPR guidelines, complies with new restrictions for cross-border data transfers and fulfills cloud independence requirements for EU and non-EU regions to provide an opportunity for client authorisation prior to sharing.
In addition to GDPR, ALLOY complies with major data regulatory frameworks such as HIPAA and SOC 2 standards, and received Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) v3.2 certification as an early adopter.
“Customers operating all over the world use ALLOY to integrate applications and systems and break down data silos,” said Lance Pilkington, Vice president of global compliance at Liaison. “Our GDPR compliance capabilities make it simple for users to comply with mandates, such as automatic removal of data from multiple integrated applications if an EU citizen requests that their data be removed from one of the applications. With ALLOY, we can easily track information and account for data across multiple systems.”
Founded in 2000, Liaison serves more than 7,000 customers in 46 countries, with offices in the United States, the Netherlands, Finland, Sweden, the United Kingdom and Singapore. It provides integration and data management solutions to help customers ‘unlock the power of a data-centric approach to their business’ according to its website.
Many companies are behind schedule to achieve Global Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) compliance according to a recent survey. A survey sponsored by international law firm McDermott Will & Emery, and carried out by the Ponemon Institute, shows that 40% of companies expect to achieve compliance with the regulation after the deadline.
