Arabic + English

Sensitive and personal data discovery

72h

To notify SDAIA of a personal data breach

SAR 5M

Maximum fine per violation, doubled for repeat offences

What PDPL requires

The obligations are clear. The data behind them usually isn't.

Breach notification

Notify SDAIA within 72 hours of becoming aware of a breach, and inform data subjects where harm is likely.

Penalties

Fines up to SAR 5 million per violation, doubled for repeat offences. Unlawful disclosure of sensitive data can carry criminal penalties.

Data Protection Officer

Required for public entities and for controllers processing sensitive data or monitoring individuals at scale.

Data subject rights

Individuals can access, correct and request destruction of their personal data. You must know where it sits to honour them.

Beyond the checklist

Not just
“Are we compliant?”

A checklist says a control exists. Astragar shows what data it protects, and where you remain exposed.

01Where is our personal data?

02What is protecting it?

03Where are the gaps?

04Which gaps create the greatest exposure?

05What evidence proves the risk is managed?

Two capabilities, one evidence layer

Find the data. Map the obligation.

DATA RISK MANAGEMENT

Know where your personal data is, in Arabic and English.

Where personal data is stored

What sensitive information is present

Who has access to it

How it is protected

Where exposure exists

No need for business data to be in English. Move from a policy view of PDPL to an operational view of the data itself.

GRC

Map every PDPL requirement to controls and evidence.

Identify the applicable PDPL obligation

Map it to security and privacy controls

Link controls to systems, assets and processes

Collect and maintain supporting evidence
