ISO 27701 certification in Bengaluru at a glance
Privacy has moved from the legal department to the engineering sprint in many Bengaluru companies. A product firm decides what user data its app collects; a service centre decides how long a client's records stay on its servers. ISO/IEC 27701 extends an ISO/IEC 27001 system with controls for personal data, separating those who decide the purposes (controllers) from those who process on instructions (processors). It adds records of processing, consent and rights handling, retention rules and breach procedures. Customers abroad read the certificate as evidence of discipline, while India's own data law is explained on the India page. Sterling layers the privacy controls onto the existing system, and an accredited certification body assesses the combined scope.

ISO 27701 in Bengaluru: questions clients ask
Who in Bengaluru adds ISO/IEC 27701 to ISO/IEC 27001?
Product firms that act as data controllers and service centres that act as processors for overseas clients. ISO/IEC 27701 extends an existing information security system with privacy controls for each role. It supports, but does not prove, compliance with any data-protection law.
Does ISO/IEC 27701 satisfy the DPDP Act?
No certificate does, because the Act is a law with its own duties and no certification scheme. ISO/IEC 27701 provides structure for records, consent, retention and rights handling that makes readiness easier to demonstrate. Confirm the legal position with counsel or the Data Protection Board.
