A Secure Online Data Repository (SODR) is a massive database infrastructure that consists of multiple databases that collects, manages and stores sensitive data for analysis and report generation. The authorized users can access the data via search and query tools. Repositories also provide an extensive overview of the data of an organization by integrating data from multiple sources.
Centralization of data in a repository reduces the chance of structural differences across different datasets. Repository systems can be designed with built-in validation mechanisms that ensure the data is compliant with certain standards before it’s consumed or updated. This allows governance policies to be applied consistently which ensures the data’s quality is maintained, and security protocols are observed. It is also easier to monitor security and access protocols in a central location instead of across scattered locations.
Many data repositories offer the option of encrypting both in motion, preventing sensitive information from being accessed or altered by unauthorised users. This feature decreases the possibility that sensitive information gets accidentally released, which could pose an issue of security for an company. Regular backups also help protect data against malicious attacks that could damage important databases. Many repositories also allow for versioning, ensuring that previous versions of data are saved to keep track of changes and revert them. This can help prevent the loss of important information should there be an unintentional system crash or hacking attack.
