Data Mapping & Risk Manager to IRM Integration

Data Mapping & Risk Manager is a TrustArc tool that helps customers store inventory data such as Systems, Partners, Vendors, Affiliates and create visual data flow maps of all business processes. IRM integrates to Data Mapping & Risk Manager to fetch a list of IT Systems where data for the Data Subject could reside. This list is returned by Data Mapping & Risk Manager based on Data Subject Type and Data Subject Location (Resident Of field).
