These reports have proven to be valuable for data governance, compliance audits, and ensuring transparency with respect to how personal information is handled within an organization. It assists in identifying and managing sensitive data, thereby enabling businesses to take necessary actions to secure, control, and govern their data in accordance with privacy laws.
