What is Data Classification Service?
Data Classification is the process of categorising data by sensitivity so it can be handled, accessed and protected appropriately. Univate builds your classification scheme and policy, labels your data and supports controls such as data loss prevention. It underpins ISO 27001 and the DPDP Act.
Data Classification is essential for IT, BFSI, healthcare and any data driven organisation in India. Univate also delivers ISO 27001 and DPDP Act.
Data Classification is increasingly expected by enterprise and government buyers in India. Organisations choose Data Classification to win contracts, clear client security and quality reviews, and reduce operational risk. Univate makes Data Classification straightforward and predictable, with a clear roadmap and a fixed quote agreed before work begins.
