Your encrypted data is useless if you have to decrypt it to use it.
That's the problem with old-school encryption. Rule 6(1)(a) of DPDPA requires "virtual tokens mapped to that personal data"- but mapping requires processing. Processing of exposed PII data means vulnerability.
We built Posidex PII Data Vault to solve this with Searchable Encryption without ever decrypting.
The Three Rules no one should miss
Rule 6(1)(a): Encryption, masking, and virtual tokens aren't optional anymore.
Rule 6(1)(g): You need technical AND organisational measures-not just security tools, but architecture.
Rule 8(3) & Rule 13(3): When customers demand erasure or correction, you have days. Not weeks. Legacy systems can't respond that fast.
Most organizations are still trying to bolt security onto systems designed for exposure.
What If Your Vault Never Leaked Data?
What if your systems could search, match, and analyse PII without ever decrypting it?
What if-in a breach-attackers found only meaningless cryptographic tokens?
What if every access, every query, every movement was logged and traceable for Rule 6(1)(g) compliance?
That's not theory. That's the Posidex PII Data Vault.
Why Breaches Will Hit Hardest
DPDPA penalties cover everything-children's data, consent violations, retention breaches. But breaches are different.
Why? Because they leave no room for interpretation. They harm real people. Immediately. And they test whether your Rule 6 safeguards actually existed.
If you suffer a breach and cannot prove strong encryption and virtual token protections were implemented, fines aren't just possible-they're expected.
The Architecture That Changes Everything
Three capabilities, one vault:
Searchable Encryption: Query encrypted data. Analyse encrypted data. Never decrypt. Rule 6(1)(a) compliance baked in.
Polymorphic Tokenization: Cryptographic tokens replace PII. No breach leaks customer data-only gibberish.
Continuous Audit Trails: Every action logged, encrypted, traceable. Rule 6(1)(g) and Rule 13(3) demands met with provable evidence.
Bonus: When Rule 8(3) erasure requests come in, you have visibility with tokens, if required at a later date.
The Cost of Delay
Building secure vaults today costs less than managing a breach tomorrow.
But this is bigger than compliance. It's about rethinking enterprise data architecture for a regulated world where innovation and privacy aren't enemies-they're partners.
DPDPA is here. Your vault needs to be too.
