How Safeguard covers IA CDPA

  • Scan requirements: 5, all decided by a scan.
  • Controls: the scan requirements below, plus 7 controls from Safeguard's control catalog for IA CDPA.
  • Automated tests: none map to it directly. You can link any automated test to its controls yourself (how).
  • Policy templates: 24: 2 written for IA CDPA and 22 from the standard set.

How each kind of coverage works, and what the readiness score counts: Compliance frameworks.

What a scan checks

Each scan of a product checks these 5 requirements against what the scan found, including the product's software inventory (SBOM).

RequirementWhat Safeguard checksDecided by
IA-CDPA-SEC Reasonable Data SecurityControllers must adopt and implement reasonable administrative, technical and physical safeguards appropriate to the volume and nature of the personal data at issue; integrity evidence for the processing software supports that duty (Iowa Code ch. 715D, controller-duties provision)Scan
IA-CDPA-INV Processing System AccountabilityCalibrating safeguards to the amount and nature of the data processed presumes the controller can enumerate the software systems that store or process consumer data (Iowa Code ch. 715D, controller-duties provision)Scan
IA-CDPA-PROC Processor Contract DutiesProcessing on a controller's behalf must be governed by a contract addressing instructions, confidentiality and subcontractor flow-down; naming the supplier behind each third-party component demonstrates that chain (Iowa Code ch. 715D, processor provisions)Scan
IA-CDPA-RIGHTS Consumer Rights Response ReadinessConsumers may confirm processing, access and delete personal data, obtain a portable copy, and opt out of sale; responding within the statutory 90-day window requires the systems holding the data to be unambiguously identifiable (Iowa Code ch. 715D, consumer-rights provisions)Scan
IA-CDPA-NOTICE Privacy Notice and Sensitive-Data DisclosureControllers must provide a reasonably accessible, clear privacy notice, including the notice-and-opt-out disclosure required before processing sensitive data; supporting documentation should carry document identity and a creation timestamp (Iowa Code ch. 715D, transparency provisions)Scan
