Next® gets built-in GDPR classification
Being on top of your document's GDPR classification is more important than ever. Having all your documents in a unified enterprise archive is a vital first step.
Myriads of customers have already used Next® to tell which documents contain personal information which do not. These custom solutions will continue to work perfectly, but with this new standard built-in GDPR classification we make it much easier to get started for newcomers.
A new info panel shows the document's current GDPR classification
Every document in Next® now has a new tag - GDPR category.
Out of the box, this category can have one out of four values:
- None (Green)
- General (Yellow)
- Sensitive (Red)
- Unknown (Grey)
In addition to the category, each document also has a GDPR status.
- Automatically
- Verified
The GDPR category for each document is automatically set using a GDPR classification policy.
- Contains No Personal Information
- Contains General Personal Information
- Contains Sensitive Personal Information
- Contains Unknown Personal Information
In each of these classifications, you can enroll the document types, you wish to automatically classify as such.
Typically you will enroll Employment contracts, Expenses, and Payroll slips to Contains Sensitive Personal information. While Purchase invoices, and Supplier letters are enrolled to Contains No Personal Information.
This means that any Supplier letter added to Next® automatically will be classified as None (Contains no Personal Information).
If you then discover that a specific supplier letter contains sensitive detail regarding an employee, you can use the Set GDPR classification action to change the classification manually to Contains Sensitive Personal Information. And, you may add a note on why you made this change.
When you find out that the review actually contains personal data, you change the classification and tell why
Who is able to make such changes is defined by a GDPR classification policy set for manual use.
We suggest that you set up automatic GDPR classification for all document types. If you have documents that are not classified, you are still able to make the classification manually if you enroll them in the policy To be manually GDPR classified.
