Scope:

Note: CIO Strategy Council announced an organizational name change to the Digital Governance Council (DGC), effective January 30, 2023 and the creation of a new standards development division, Digital Governance Standards Institute (DGSI). This proposed Standard provides a framework for identifying and mitigating the likelihood that an individual is identified directly or indirectly from data, and risks associated with the lifecycle of de-identified data.

Project need:

Organizations are calling for guidance and market certainty, including Canada’s economic strategy tables to: create new data streams through the deployment of IoT devices across supply chains; share data between organizations in safe and secure ways; and gain insights from secondary uses of existing datasets. Over the past year, several themes (e.g., data ownership, interoperability, trustworthiness, cybersecurity, etc.) associated with sound data governance have emerged. Consistent requirements and guidance on these themes are necessary to create a comprehensive governance framework for data governance.

Note: The information provided above was obtained by the Standards Council of Canada (SCC) and is provided as part of a centralized, transparent notification system for new standards development. The system allows SCC-accredited Standards Development Organizations (SDOs), and members of the public, to be informed of new work in Canadian standards development, and allows SCC-accredited SDOs to identify and resolve potential duplication of standards and effort.
