How BalkanID addresses GDPR
Least privilege and data minimisation
enforced from Day 1.
Six capabilities that translate GDPR's access requirements into automated, continuously evidenced controls, across every system that processes personal data.
Privacy by design: least-privilege provisioning
GDPR requires that only the minimum necessary personal data is accessible to any given user by default. BalkanID's HRIS-driven birthright provisioning grants new employees access only to what their specific role requires, no catch-all groups, no broad default access. Privacy by default is enforced at the point of provisioning, not cleaned up afterwards.
Purpose-based access with JITPBAC
GDPR limits personal data processing to the specific purpose for which it was collected. JITPBAC ensures elevated access to personal data is tied to a declared purpose, time-limited, and auto-revoked. Accessing personal data outside a declared purpose is structurally prevented, not just policy-prohibited.
Data processor & vendor access governance
GDPR requires data processors to provide sufficient guarantees about their technical and organisational measures. BalkanID governs contractor and vendor identities alongside employees, same access reviews, same deprovisioning, same audit trail. When a vendor engagement ends, access revocation is automatic and verified.
Continuous access reviews for personal data systems
GDPR requires ongoing assurance that access to personal data is appropriate and restricted to authorised individuals. BalkanID replaces manual reviews with a continuous, AI-prioritized process. Evidence is stored per cycle, ready for a DPA inquiry without manual assembly.
Immutable audit trail for Records of Processing (RoPA)
GDPR requires controllers to maintain records of processing activities, including categories of recipients with access to personal data. BalkanID's immutable event log records every access grant, review action, and deprovisioning event with timestamps. Your RoPA is always current because the underlying access record never falls behind.
Automated offboarding, the Right to Erasure enabler
When employees leave, HRIS-triggered deprovisioning revokes access to personal data across every connected system, verified, not assumed. When a data subject exercises their right to erasure, BalkanID's identity graph shows exactly which systems held that data and who had access.
