DataGuard Platform Overview

DataGuard provides a Privacy-as-a-Service and InfoSec-as-a-Service platform enabling organizations to manage data protection, information security, and regulatory compliance through a centralized cloud solution. Founded in 2018 by Thomas Regier and Kivanc Semen in Munich, Germany, the company raised $83.1 million across two rounds (Series A $20M from One Peak in 2020; Series B $60.4M led by Morgan Stanley and One Peak in 2022) and operates with 250+ certified experts across Munich, Berlin, London, Stockholm, and Vienna, serving 4,000+ organizations including Canon, Scout24, and Raiffeisen Bank International.

The platform combines automated workflows with expert consultancy to accelerate certifications by 75% and reduce manual compliance work by 40%, supporting GDPR, ISO 27001, TISAX, SOC 2, NIS2, EU AI Act, CCPA, and EU Whistleblower Directive compliance. Core capabilities include automated evidence collection, Privacy Impact Assessments (PIAs), Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIAs), breach management, data subject request handling, third-party risk management, and a Consent Management system serving 30+ million end users, with integrations to Asana and Mondoo for workflow and security automation.

Built with 1.5 million hours of expert experience, DataGuard achieves a 100% first-try certification pass rate and helps organizations cover 70% of NIS2 requirements through ISO 27001 alignment. The company generated €12.5M annual revenue in 2024, acquired DPOrganizer in June 2024 to expand privacy capabilities, and serves finance, healthcare, technology, manufacturing, and professional services sectors across 50+ countries with distribution partnerships including QBS Software and CIPS Informatica.

Key Capabilities

Standardized capabilities mapped to this product's security niche

Privacy Management

Automates intake, identity verification, routing to data owners, and fulfillment of GDPR, CCPA, and LGPD data subject requests, access, deletion, portability, and correction.

Captures, stores, and versions consent records with purpose, legal basis, and timestamp, providing auditable proof of consent for data processing activities.

Discovers personal data processing activities and their associated data flows, systems, and third-party transfers: the foundation for GDPR Article 30 Records of Processing Activities.

Provides structured DPIA workflows with pre-built templates for common processing activities, routing for DPO review, and documentation of risk mitigations.

Assesses third-party processors and sub-processors against GDPR data processing agreement requirements and privacy control standards before data sharing.

Monitors updates to privacy laws and regulatory guidance across jurisdictions and maps changes to affected data processing activities and controls in the program.

Serves compliant cookie consent banners, stores granular consent by category, and integrates with analytics and ad tech platforms to enforce user consent preferences.

Integrated Risk Management (IRM)

Maps identified risks and controls simultaneously to multiple compliance frameworks (NIST CSF, ISO 27001, SOC 2, CIS), from a single assessment, eliminating per-framework re-mapping.

Tests control effectiveness on a continuous or scheduled basis by querying data sources (SIEM, EDR, CSPM), rather than relying on periodic manual assessments or self-attestation.

Generates risk dashboards and narratives in business language (financial exposure, program trend, peer benchmarking) for executive and board audiences rather than technical control status.

Maintains the policy library, routes exceptions for approval, tracks exception expiry, and ties policy requirements to associated risks and controls.

Assesses supplier security posture through questionnaires, evidence review, or continuous monitoring, tracks risk from third parties with access to systems or data.

Manages identified risks and control gaps from finding through remediation, assigning owners, tracking progress, and reporting on closure rates against defined SLAs.

Tracks regulatory and standard updates (new NIST guidance, amended GDPR guidance, PCI DSS version updates), and maps changes to affected controls in the program.
