Abstract
Privacy compliance testing tools play a vital role in today’s digital age. They help protect personal data, ensure compliance with laws and regulations, and reduce risks. This research compares eleven privacy compliance testing tools based on thirteen evaluation criteria. The results show that most of the tools support artificial intelligence technologies, which enhances their ability to analyze data and detect potential risks quickly and effectively. All tools are compliant with international standards and regulations, but do not directly support the Sudanese AntiCybercrime Law (2007). The analysis indicates a preference for comprehensive tools that offer integrated solutions, with the possibility of customization to meet the needs of the organization. It also emphasizes the importance of ease of use, multilingual support, high performance, and the ability to provide comprehensive reports. The research shows that most of the tools are not open source and require financial investment. The research reviews the different tools according to criteria such as speed of performance, release date, reporting support, scalability, and technical support, which helps in choosing the most suitable tool for organizations according to their specific needs.
