Helios: Automated data inventory for enterprise privacy compliance

Modern enterprises face mounting pressure to maintain accurate, up-to-date records of how personal data is collected, stored, and processed across their systems. In this whitepaper, we introduce Helios, Ethyca’s real-time data inventory platform that replaces outdated, manual RoPA processes with automated monitoring, advanced classification, and seamless reporting.

You’ll learn how Helios integrates directly into your existing infrastructure to discover third-party vendors, scan cloud environments, and classify data using contextual and content-aware techniques. The platform also supports flexible reporting, system ownership delegation, and developer-friendly workflows that embed privacy into the software development lifecycle.

Whether you’re managing compliance for a global enterprise or modernizing legacy data governance workflows, this whitepaper offers a clear path to scalable, proactive privacy operations.
