How Safeguard covers NH DPA
- Scan requirements: 6, all decided by a scan.
- Controls: the scan requirements below, plus 8 controls from Safeguard's control catalog for NH DPA.
- Automated tests: none map to it directly. You can link any automated test to its controls yourself (how).
- Policy templates: 24: 2 written for NH DPA and 22 from the standard set.
How each kind of coverage works, and what the readiness score counts: Compliance frameworks.
What a scan checks
Each scan of a product checks these 6 requirements against what the scan found, including the product's software inventory (SBOM).
| Requirement | What Safeguard checks | Decided by |
|---|---|---|
NH-DPA-SEC Data Security Practices | Controllers must establish, implement and maintain reasonable administrative, technical and physical data security practices appropriate to the volume and nature of the personal data processed; verifiable integrity of the processing software evidences this (RSA ch. 507-H, controller-duties provision) | Scan |
NH-DPA-MIN Minimisation Accountability | Personal data collection must be adequate, relevant and limited to what is reasonably necessary; a named processing platform with its components enumerated demonstrates the controller knows what it processes and where (RSA ch. 507-H, controller-duties provision) | Scan |
NH-DPA-PROC Processor Obligations | Processors operate under binding contracts, assist controllers with security and assessment duties, and bind subcontractors equivalently; named suppliers on third-party components demonstrate this oversight (RSA ch. 507-H, processor provisions) | Scan |
NH-DPA-DPIA Data Protection Assessment Readiness | Data protection assessments are required for targeted advertising, sale, risky profiling and sensitive data processing; assessments depend on recorded versions of the software performing that processing (RSA ch. 507-H, data protection assessment provisions) | Scan |
NH-DPA-RIGHTS Consumer Rights Fulfilment | Consumers may access, correct, delete and port personal data and opt out of targeted advertising, sale and profiling, including via universal opt-out signals; the systems holding the data must be unambiguously identifiable to execute these rights (RSA ch. 507-H, consumer-rights provisions) | Scan |
NH-DPA-NOTICE Privacy Notice Documentation | Controllers must provide a reasonably accessible, clear and meaningful privacy notice; supporting system documentation should carry document identity and a creation timestamp so the notice's claims remain auditable (RSA ch. 507-H, transparency provisions) | Scan |
