KVKK technical measures in the system, not on paper

From the personal data inventory to access control, from encryption to log records: implementing the Board’s list of technical measures in your infrastructure and documenting it audit-ready.

    Compliance file

The privacy notice is a legal job; access control is an engineering job

KVKK compliance has two legs: administrative measures (policies, contracts, notices) and technical measures (access, encryption, logging, backup, deletion). Sentinel takes on the technical leg: maps where personal data lives, records who accesses it, encrypts, backs up and implements deletion processes in the system; working together with your legal advisor.

  • Data map

    Systems, file shares and databases holding personal data; scanning with discovery tools.

  • Access and encryption

    Permission matrix, privileged access management, disk and database encryption.

  • Records and evidence

    Access logs, backup and deletion records; the file to show in an audit.

Frequently asked questions

The most common questions about KVKK technical compliance

  • Your advisor prepares policies and contracts; we implement and prove the access, encryption, logging and deletion measures in the systems. Both sides work in coordination.

  • KVKK restricts cross-border transfer; Sentinel Cloud keeps data in Türkiye. If you use cloud services, transfer conditions are evaluated.

  • Yes: separate encryption, stricter access and logging, retention period control. Handled separately in the gap analysis.

  • An incident response plan and technical evidence collection process are prepared for the 72-hour notification obligation; supported by the Sentinel incident response service.

  • The technical measures largely overlap with ISO 27001 controls; the compliance file is also used in ISO work.
