ABSTRACT
Throughout the global economy there exists systemic issues regarding the privacy of collected personal information. Recent regulations have attempted to curb this issue such as the European General Data Protection Directive (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Protection Act (CCPA). However, it is still all too common to find that the average organization has little to no idea what data they have, why they have specific data, or how long the data has resided with the company, among many questions to be answered. A method that may be employed by organizations to begin rectifying this is to conduct data mapping. Data mapping is the process of identifying and understanding of how personal data is used in an organization’s information systems.
