With advancement of digital technologies and increased digitization of businesses, value of data has increased manifold.

How Infosys can help?

With CCPA coming into effect from 1 January 2020, organizations need to relook at their current data practices. Addressing CCPA requirements demands a heightened sense of purpose and drive from organizations coupled with a well-orchestrated roadmap and a change management plan.

Infosys believes that to drive a CCPA program, an organization needs to adopt an integrated and harmonized implementation model across the enterprise. To that effect, Infosys has developed solution frameworks, toolkits, questionnaires, and accelerators.

Infosys uses ADAM Framework - Assess, Define, Administer and Manage, to make organizations CCPA ready. The ADAM framework takes a structured and exhaustive view of the CCPA requirements and addresses each one of them by using a phased and modular approach. Some of the key components of the framework are "As-Is" assessment and gap analysis, Privacy by Design, Information Life Cycle Management, Organizational set up & readiness, Technology solutions and implementations to address the various rights enshrined under CCPA. The ADAM framework is supported by a business reference architecture and a rich and diverse set of templates and accelerators.
