PwC is launching an AI-powered solution designed to help organizations meet General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) requirements by automating data privacy monitoring, identifying compliance risks in real time, and strengthening governance across enterprise systems. Built in collaboration with Oracle, the solution integrates with Oracle Fusion Cloud applications—including Oracle Human Capital Management (HCM) and Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP)—to enable a shift from manual, fragmented compliance processes to a proactive, AI-driven approach to data privacy management.
GDPR and the new era of data privacy regulation
Workforce data privacy is a top priority for HR leaders worldwide. As GDPR continues to evolve, HR teams face pressure to swiftly adapt to regulatory changes – while managing growing volumes of sensitive employee, payroll, and personal data. This data is often scattered across platforms and external applications, making consistent auditability and compliance oversight difficult. At the same time, compliance efforts remain largely manual and resource-intensive, leaving organizations exposed to gaps, risk and inefficiencies. The stakes are high: non-compliance with GDPR requirements can result in penalties of up to €20 million or 4% of annual global revenue.
Forward-thinking organizations recognize that keeping pace with regulatory change requires more than reactive reviews—it demands a scalable, technology-driven approach.
PwC’s AI-powered GDPR solution enables HR teams to move from fragmented, manual compliance activities to a proactive, automated approach to data privacy governance.
