Questions about Assessments? We’ve got you covered
What is a privacy assessment, and why is it important?
Privacy assessments like PIAs (Privacy Impact Assessments) and DPIAs (Data Protection Impact Assessments) help organizations identify and mitigate risks related to personal data processing. They’re required under regulations like GDPR and DPDPA, and Neostra makes them easy to create, manage, and document.
Are there pre-built templates in Neostra for assessments?
Yes. Neostra offers ready-to-use templates for standard assessments like DPIAs and PIAs. You can customize these or build your own templates from scratch.
How are risks flagged or calculated during assessments?
Neostra lets you define your own scoring systems and thresholds. As responses are entered, the system flags high-risk areas based on your criteria and highlights them with recommended next steps or mitigation actions. This ensures risks are identified consistently and aligned with your organization’s policies.
Does Neostra track changes and maintain an audit log?
Yes. All updates, comments, and risk changes are timestamped and logged for accountability. This helps you demonstrate due diligence and transparency in every assessment.
Is Neostra compliant with global privacy laws like GDPR, CCPA, DPDPA and others?

Can I customize assessment questions and scoring logic?
