Securing Global
Employee Privacy
How KewData.ai untangled the complexities of multi-jurisdictional privacy laws to protect CurrentWare, a globally distributed SaaS provider, and empower their international growth securely.
The Product
Software as a Service (SaaS) tailored for comprehensive employee monitoring, handling highly sensitive user and operational data daily.
The Scale
Serving a massive international customer base, managed by a globally distributed, remote-first workforce.
The Challenge
Navigating a Global Minefield
As a provider of employee monitoring software, CurrentWare's expansion presented immense, multi-layered regulatory challenges worldwide.
Legal Ramifications
Monitoring software inherently touches upon strict privacy lines. Deploying this across varying international privacy standards required deep legal translation to prevent massive liabilities.
Dual-Front Compliance
Compliance wasn't just for the customers using the software. CurrentWare needed rigorous protection for their own globally distributed internal staff simultaneously.
Conflicting Jurisdictions
Managing overlapping, and sometimes entirely conflicting, data privacy regulations across North America, Europe, and Asia without halting product functionality.
"CurrentWare required a strategic partner capable of untangling the complexities of global privacy laws to protect their business and empower their international growth securely."
