Modern Data Governance Part 2 #71
On this episode, part two of two, Darren continues his discussion on modern data governance with Matthew Carroll, CEO of Immuta.
In modern data governance, the first premise is that you have to separate policy from platform.
The second is that there can be no ontology. If anyone tries to create a super schema of everything, it’s impossible, but you need a schema to apply policy. So if a user wants to join two columns, you have to have a new policy. Sensitive data must be discovered, both through direct and indirect identifiers. Indirect identifiers are more difficult, and techniques must be applied to mitigate the risk of link attacks.
