Obscure Technologies adds OneTrust to portfolio

Issue 4 2022 Security Services & Risk Management

Cybersecurity specialist Obscure Technologies has announced the formation of a strategic alliance with OneTrust, a provider of Trust Intelligence. Obscure Technologies will now offer the following OneTrust product and solution stack: Professional Services, DataGovernance; Governance Risk and Compliance (GRC); PreferenceChoice and Privacy, to the South African market.

OneTrust’s technology platform connects privacy, GRC, ethics and environmental, social and governance (ESG) teams, data, and processes so companies, big and small, can collaborate seamlessly and put trust at the centre of their operations and culture.

Darryl Barnes, senior partner specialist, OneTrust, notes the global corporation helps customers to adopt better privacy practises so they can be trusted with customer data and deliver more valuable user experiences. “We help organisations and supply chains to be resilient in the face of cyber threats, global crises and natural disasters so they always remain in a ‘business as usual’ state and with confidence.”

Obscure Technologies’ vendor manager, Kellen van Rooyen notes that businesses lacking, or losing, trust often experience a substantial negative financial impact. “For example, recent data from Deloitte found that three $10 billion companies lost between 20 and 56% of their value when stakeholder trust was lost. Trusted companies, however, outperform the S&P 500 by 30 to 50%. These weighty statistics are just an indicator of the potential value Obscure Technologies can deliver to both our current and future customers through the addition of OneTrust to our portfolio.”

OneTrust connects data, teams, and processes for seamless collaboration, transforming trust from an abstract concept into competitive advantage and moving organisations from siloed compliance initiatives to coordinated trust intelligence.

OneTrust solutions power privacy and data governance, GRC, ethics, and ESG programmes. They deliver regulatory compliance, proactive risk management, and trusted data use across organisations. The coordinated trust platform provides compliance solutions across global regulations and frameworks.
