Approving Requests

Data guardians perform the following tasks in the Privitar Data Security Platform​:

  • Approving asset registration requests made by data owners

    An asset registration request is an inquiry made by a data owner to add a data asset (a database table, for example) to a dataset. A data guardian approves or denies asset registration requests.

    The data guardian ensures that the data owner properly classified the asset and that there are appropriate rules for the protection of the data asset.

  • Approving project requests made by data consumers

    A project request is an inquiry made either by a data consumer to use the assets in a data consumption project or by a data owner to create a migration project. Data guardians approve or deny all project requests.

    The data guardian ensures that the fields in each asset within a project are properly classified and that there are appropriate rules for the protection of the data assets used by the project.
