How PRAMANA Helps
Understanding Your DPDP Obligations
You want to do the right thing. The rules are just hard to follow.
The DPDP Act affects every business in India that handles personal data. The penalties are significant,
but most compliance gaps come from not knowing what the law requires of your specific business.
PRAMANA helps you understand your obligations, find where you stand, and get a clear plan to close the gaps.

How It Fits Into Your Business
PRAMANA runs inside your network, not in someone else's cloud. Here's what that means for you:
🔒
Your Data Never Leaves
PRAMANA runs on a machine inside your office or server room. No patient records, student data, or financial information is sent to any external server. An egress filter enforces this, even if a component tries to phone home, it's blocked. This matters for DPDP Sec 16 (cross-border transfer) compliance.
🔌
No External Dependencies
No external cloud APIs. The AI governance engine runs 100% locally on your private on-premise infrastructure. No monthly API bills. No surprise cost spikes. No vendor lock-in. Works on a standard desktop or mini-PC, no GPU required for the assessment mode.
🖥
Simple Web Interface
Access via your secure private local web interface. No client app installation required on staff devices.. No VPN. No firewall changes. Your compliance officer, your clinic manager, your school principal, anyone can use it from their existing laptop. Reports export as HTML or PDF.
📡
Air-Gap Friendly
For high-security environments (hospitals, banks, defense), PRAMANA can run fully air-gapped. Updates come as signed offline bundles, you transfer them via USB, the system verifies the cryptographic signature, then applies the update. No network connection needed, ever.
👥
Multi-User, Role-Based
Your compliance officer sees the full dashboard. Your department heads see only their sector's checklist. Your auditor gets a read-only report view. All access is logged with a tamper-evident audit trail, so you can prove who did what, when.
📦
One-Click Reports
Generate a Board-ready compliance report in one click. Includes: your compliance score, penalty exposure, gap analysis, remediation plan, AI system inventory, and regulatory mapping. Print it, email it, or hand it to your auditor. No formatting needed.
What PRAMANA Does For You
You didn't start your business to become a compliance expert. But the rules have changed, and ignoring them isn't an option. Here's how PRAMANA helps you stay on top of it.
🔍
Finds Your Gaps Before Someone Else Does
You answer 15 simple yes/no questions about how your business handles data. PRAMANA maps each answer to the exact DPDP section that applies to you. If there's a gap, you'll know about it in 5 minutes, not when a notice arrives in the mail.
📋
Gives You a Plan, Not Just a Score
A compliance score is just a number. What you actually need is: "Fix this first. Here's how. Here's the template. Here's who needs to do it." That's what PRAMANA gives you, a step-by-step remediation plan in plain language, no legal degree required.
🔒
Runs Inside Your Office, Not Someone Else's Cloud
Your patient records, student data, financial information, none of it leaves your building. PRAMANA runs on a machine in your office. No external servers. No API calls. No monthly cloud bills. An egress filter enforces this even if something tries to connect outward.
⚖
Speaks Your Sector's Language
A clinic's obligations are different from a school's. A fintech's risks are different from an HR department's. PRAMANA comes pre-loaded with the specific DPDP sections, AI risk classifications, and compliance checklists for your industry, not a generic one-size-fits-all template.
📊
Produces Evidence You Can Show the Board
If the Data Protection Board sends a notice, "we tried" isn't enough. You need documented evidence that you assessed your compliance, identified gaps, and took steps to fix them. PRAMANA generates that record automatically, with dates, findings, and remediation actions.
⏱
Takes 15 Minutes, Not 15 Weeks
You don't need to hire a consultant. You don't need a legal team. You don't need to read the 35-page DPDP Act. Install PRAMANA, answer 15 questions about your business, and get your compliance report. The penalties under DPDP are already in force, every day without an assessment is a day of exposure.
