Other terms explained in the page

No items found.

A data inventory is a comprehensive list of all data assets owned by a company (also known as a data map or data mapping). A properly-maintained data inventory contains up-to-date, thorough information about the data as well as the organization's sources for the data. When properly constructed, a data map can offer significant insights into the different types of data that an organization gathers, where that data is located, who has access to it, and how that data is used.
