Why is data security so important in MDM?

Before launching an MDM initiative, you should develop a comprehensive strategy, including a focus on master data security.
Before launching an MDM initiative, organizations must develop a comprehensive strategy, including a focus on master data security for both data in motion and data at rest. To unleash the full power of MDM in their organizations, companies must rethink traditional approaches to cyber and perimeter security by putting a special focus on the application and data to ensure they remain secure and trusted. How can this be achieved?





Make use of the security provided by MDM software

Authentication to verify a user's identity . A user of an MDM skype database can be any person or application that requires access to data stored in the MDM system. Authentication is performed based on their provided credentials, such as a username and password. The MDM solution should include a well-integrated internal user authentication management protocol to ensure that the user or application is valid before providing access to data.

Authorization to determine if a user has sufficient privileges to access the data requested from the MDM . The user authorization capability within an MDM solution allows you to protect various resources in the MDM system by allowing only users with appropriate privileges to be authorized to access data. This can be enhanced by creating role-based user authorizations and granting access to the resources required to complete the tasks allowed by the user.

Access logs: MDM solutions should offer audit logging to visualize who requested or accessed which MDM records, when and where. This in turn should trigger alerts and workflows upon detecting suspicious behavior. A comprehensive MDM solution should provide timestamp information on each attribute and provide rule-based business process management capability to dynamically change query results.
