India’s Digital Personal Data Protection Act is live, the Data Protection Board is operational, and most Indians (and most companies) still don’t know what that actually means.
In this episode, Rohan Patil sits down with Mayank Sharma, Global Data Protection Officer at a Financial Services Firm to unpack what India’s data privacy moment really means, in plain language.
They cover the DPO’s actual job versus the compliance-checkbox version, what happens in the first 72 hours after a data breach, why AI is the biggest gap current privacy law doesn’t cover, and why India’s real privacy problem is invisible: most companies don’t know where their own data lives.
Guest: Mayank Sharma, Global Data Protection Officer. 16+ years across data privacy, eDiscovery, regulatory compliance, fraud risk, and KYC. FIP, CIPP-E, CIPM, CIPT, DCPP, CEDS certified.
