According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention discloses an AI-powered digital compliance engine designed to enable intelligent, automated, and scalable multi-layer data governance across modern digital ecosystems. The system continuously monitors data activities, access events, and processing workflows across heterogeneous environments, including cloud platforms, enterprise systems, and third-party services. By integrating artificial intelligence, machine learning, and rule-based policy reasoning, the compliance engine evaluates regulatory, contractual, and organizational compliance requirements in real time. The invention supports governance across multiple layers of the data lifecycle, including data classification, access control, consent management, data lineage, retention enforcement, and cross-border data transfer restrictions. A centralized policy orchestration framework ensures consistent interpretation and enforcement of compliance rules across decentralized infrastructures. The system proactively detects compliance risks, prevents policy violations, and automatically triggers appropriate enforcement actions such as access restriction, data masking, alerts, or remediation workflows. To address regulatory transparency requirements, the compliance engine provides explainable and auditable compliance decisions. Each enforcement action is accompanied by human-readable explanations and traceable evidence, enabling effective auditing and regulatory reporting. Secure logging and continuous monitoring further enhance accountability and compliance assurance. Overall, the invention delivers a robust, adaptive, and future-ready digital compliance solution that reduces manual compliance effort, minimizes regulatory risk, and supports secure data-driven operations in complex and evolving regulatory environments."
