DPDP breach investigation readiness

Be ready to investigate a personal-data breach with evidence, not guesswork.

SURAGX can support the investigative work needed to establish what happened, what may be affected, what evidence supports the conclusion and what remediation context should be documented. Product use does not itself create DPDP compliance.

What the rules emphasize

Security safeguards, visibility and breach investigation.

Rule 6 of the Digital Personal Data Protection Rules, 2025 sets out minimum reasonable-security safeguards that include appropriate access controls, logs/monitoring/review to enable detection, investigation and remediation, backups/continuity measures, and retention of specified logs/personal data for one year unless another law requires otherwise.

Rule 7 sets out breach-intimation requirements. It includes information about the nature, extent and timing of a breach, likely impact, mitigation and remediation; it also provides for an updated detailed intimation to the Board within seventy-two hours after awareness, or a longer period the Board may allow on written request.

What SURAGX should claim

Investigation support — not automatic compliance.

Safe public wording: SURAGX is designed to support evidence-backed breach investigation, provenance, timeline reconstruction, scope assessment, remediation context and report preparation.

Do not claim:

“Using SURAGX makes an organisation DPDP compliant,” “certified compliance,” or “72-hour guaranteed compliance.” Applicability, commencement, notifications and legal decisions remain with the organisation and its advisers.
