Ensure data governance
Data governance is about the processes, technologies and specialists involved in the proper management of critical data through the organization’s infrastructure. An organization should keep the current data supply chain elements documented. Keep data flows and inventories mapped and viewed throughout the entire data lifecycle: from retrieval or generation and exposure.
Maintaining documentation relevant enables continuous data governance and provides knowledge about:
The exact data collected
The purposes of data collection
The ways to use that data
The storage destinations
The security measures applied
The access control policies
The ways to expose the data on demand or upon the retention period expires
