Konverge and Forcepoint assists clients to comply with APRA CPG 235

Forcepoint An Industry Leader by Analyst Standards


The Australian Prudential Regulation Authority's (APRA) CPG 235 standard, "Managing Data Risks," aims to strengthen data governance within financial institutions. While crucial, many companies struggle with manual compliance processes that are inefficient, error-prone, and complex.


Konverge offers a leading solution by Forcepoint, that simplifies and automates CPG 235 compliance. Forcepoint's comprehensive platform provides IT security, data security, and compliance services tailored for the financial industry.


Key Challenges of CPG 235


CPG 235 is applicable to all financial entities in Australia offering deposit and insurance products. It mandates effective management of data security risks, not only for compliance but also to protect business reputation and align with global standards like GDPR.


A Comprehensive Solution


Clause 27 of CPG 235 requires a clear understanding of data flow (data lineage) throughout its entire lifecycle. Forcepoint's solution excels by automating data lineage, showcasing the origin, usage, transformation, and destination of data. This comprehensive approach empowers organisations to:


  •   Establish a unified system of record for all assets.
  •   Utilise AI for real-time error identification and prevention.
  •   Generate compliance reports, particularly for sensitive data.
  •   Track data movement across the entire organisation.


The Importance of Data Lineage


Data lineage provides a visual representation of data movement from ingestion to disposal. It identifies issues related to quality, security, privacy, and governance, enabling swift action and process improvement.


Data Lifecycle and Disposal


To fully meet CPG 235 requirements, Konverge and Forcepoint recommends mapping lineage diagrams for regulated business processes. Their automated data lineage identifies potential security gaps and optimises data handling for both efficiency and compliance.


The Future of Managing Data Risk is here with Forcepoint
