Application: Systems and methods for identifying data processing activities based on data discovery results (Patent ID: US20240160747A1)
The patent filed by OneTrust LLC describes a method and system for identifying data processing activities associated with data assets based on data discovery results. The method involves scanning data assets to detect a subset associated with target data, generating predictions for data flow between pairs of assets, and identifying data processing activities based on correlations with known data elements and flows. The system utilizes machine-learning models to predict data associations and flows, enabling actions to be performed based on identified processing activities, such as ensuring secure handling of personal data and managing risks associated with data processing.
The patent also covers the use of classifiers to generate predictions for data assets and pairs of assets, determining the likelihood of data flow between assets, and identifying risks associated with data processing activities. Additionally, the system allows for actions to be taken in response to requests related to target data, such as accessing, revising, or deleting data. Furthermore, the system includes provisions for injecting test data to analyze data flows and utilizes rules-based models to identify data flows between assets. Overall, the method and system described in the patent aim to enhance data processing activities by leveraging machine learning and predictive models to ensure efficient and secure handling of data assets within a computing system.
