Employee turnover, departmental restructuring, and changes in data ownership responsibilities can lead to “orphan data” – data sets with no designated owner. This creates a lack of accountability for data quality, security, and compliance.

Data Governance & Accountability with Zubin

Zubin’s automated ownership transfer effectively addresses this challenge by identifying and reassigning data to active custodians based on predefined rules. By establishing clear ownership and accountability, organizations can mitigate risks, improve data governance, and enhance overall data management efficiency. Additionally, Zubin’s role-based access controls (RBAC) can be integrated with ownership assignments to ensure that only authorized individuals have access to the data, further strengthening data security.

Manual processes for assigning and reassigning data ownership are time-consuming, error-prone, and hinder data governance efforts. Inconsistent data ownership practices can lead to data security vulnerabilities and complicate compliance with data privacy regulations like GDPR and CCPA.

Automation & Compliance with Zubin

Zubin’s policy-based ownership transfer eliminates manual intervention, ensuring consistent ownership practices and simplifying compliance efforts. By providing a centralized record of ownership changes, Zubin facilitates efficient audits, regulatory reporting, and demonstrates adherence to data privacy regulations. Moreover, Zubin’s integration with data retention policies ensures that data is managed per its lifecycle, minimizing compliance risks.

Orphaned data often remains stored indefinitely, even if it’s no longer relevant or valuable to the organization. This unnecessary data consumes valuable storage resources and increases storage costs.

Cost Optimization & Storage Management with Zubin

Zubin’s policy-based transfer, retention management, and archival capabilities optimize storage utilization. By identifying and managing data lifecycle effectively, Zubin reduces storage costs and ensures data availability. Additionally, Zubin’s integration with cloud storage platforms enables organizations to leverage cost-effective storage options while maintaining data accessibility.

Unclear data ownership can hinder collaboration and knowledge sharing. Business users may hesitate to access or utilize data if they are unsure of who owns it and who they should contact for permission. This creates data silos and limits the potential value that data can deliver to the organization.

Data Democratization with Zubin

Zubin’s clear ownership assignments and data sharing capabilities foster knowledge sharing and break down data silos. By providing insights into data usage, Zubin empowers data owners to make informed decisions about collaboration and Data Sharing. Moreover, Zubin’s metadata management capabilities can be used to create data catalogs and registries, improving data discoverability and facilitating collaboration.
