How can you secure data in a data hub?

4 Data access control

Data access control is the mechanism of granting or denying access to data based on predefined rules and policies. It ensures that only authorized users and applications can access or modify data, and that data is used for legitimate and ethical purposes. Data access control can be implemented at different layers, such as network, system, database, or application. You can use access control tools or methods that support various models, such as role-based, attribute-based, or rule-based access control.

5 Data auditing and monitoring

Data auditing and monitoring is the process of tracking and recording data activities and events, such as data access, data changes, data transfers, or data anomalies. It helps you detect and respond to data security incidents, analyze data usage patterns, and verify data compliance and quality. Data auditing and monitoring can be performed using various tools or techniques, such as logs, alerts, dashboards, or reports.

6 Data security governance

Data security governance is the framework of policies, standards, roles, and responsibilities that guide and oversee data security practices and processes. It helps you align your data security objectives and strategies with your business goals and requirements, and ensure accountability and transparency. Data security governance can be established and maintained using various tools or approaches, such as data security policies, data security committees, data security audits, or data security training.
