Data Resource Ownership Review System
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing access governance systems lack the ability to review the attributes and ownership of data resources, focusing only on user access rights without considering the accuracy of resource ownership.
Innovation Solution
A system and method for reviewing data resource ownership, which includes storing data resource identifiers and review definitions, allowing users to create review definitions for selecting data resources, reviewers, and scheduling reviews, enabling the validation and assignment of accurate ownership through a processor-executed review process.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If existing access governance systems review user access rights, then user access control is improved, but the ability to review data resource attributes and ownership is lost
Solution Approach 1:
The review system is designed to perform multiple functions: it can review user access rights to data resources AND review attributes of the data resources themselves including ownership information. This multi-functional capability resolves the contradiction by making the system versatile enough to handle both access control reviews and resource attribute reviews within a single unified platform.
2Measurement precision
If a comprehensive review system is implemented to review data resource attributes, then ownership accuracy is improved, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The review system segments the review process into distinct components: user access right reviews and data resource attribute reviews. Each segment can be configured and executed independently through separate review definitions. This segmentation allows the system to achieve comprehensive ownership accuracy without overwhelming complexity, as each segment can be managed and maintained separately.
3Reliability
If regular ownership reviews are performed, then ownership accuracy is maintained, but review time and resources increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements periodic action by allowing ownership reviews to be scheduled at regular intervals through review definitions. Organizations can configure reviews to occur annually, quarterly, or at other appropriate frequencies based on their needs. This periodic approach maintains ownership accuracy over time while managing review time and resources efficiently, avoiding both excessive frequency and complete neglect of ownership validation.
Data Source
AI summary
A system for reviewing the ownership of data resources includes a database that stores a plurality of data resource identifiers. Each of the plurality of data resource identifiers has an associated owner field. The system also includes a second database that stores data resource review definitions. The review definitions define a review processes for the plurality of data resources. The system further includes a processor that is in communication with the data resource database and the review definition database. The processor executes the data resource ownership review processes defined by the review definitions at the appropriate times.
