Integrated manual and automated classification, ensuring every data asset in your organization is governed by an access and protection policy that matches its sensitivity level.
100% classification aligned with NDMO requirements
Access control by classification level
Full classification lifecycle management
Classification linked to personal data protection
It goes beyond tagging tables and fields, integrating with the data itself and governing how it is accessed, shared, and protected. Its absence does not just weaken compliance, it leads to real security and regulatory risks.
One integrated program that classifies your data, controls access to it, and strengthens protection and compliance.
Sets classification granularity at table level, field level, or through custom rules.
Governata understands your data, integrates with privacy management, and prevents duplicate classification.
Links user access permissions directly to classification levels for controlled, secure access.
Shows classification levels inside the Data Catalog with each asset's applied classifications.
Automatically calculates the share of classified data for each source in Governata.
Surfaces classification results on shared data to support safer, more compliant decisions.
Reach the target data through the classification program and review its details before classifying.
Set the level based on data nature, disclosure impact, and regulatory requirements.
Document the decision and its reasons, then route it for review and approval through a clear workflow.
Use the classification to govern access, sharing, protection, and compliance.
Business users know what they can use or share based on the classification level, without technical expertise, so they use data with confidence and clarity.
The classification level enables the right protection controls and reduces risks of unauthorized access, leakage, and misuse.
Provides documented, reviewable classification for every asset and ensures access, sharing, and retention policies apply consistently across the organization.
Supports documentation of personal data and its classification levels and strengthens readiness for PDPL, audit, and compliance work.
Each asset's classification level guides infrastructure, access, storage, and protection decisions instead of personal judgment.
Without it, policies stay on paper. With it, every module becomes more effective, connected, and impactful.
The classification level automatically links each asset to the right access permissions.
Classification connects personal data directly to protection controls and compliance requirements.
hows the classification level on each asset's page and enables search, filtering, and understanding of usage controls.
Combines classification level with accuracy and completeness indicators to strengthen trust in data.
The Personal Data Protection Law does not only ask whether you have data. It asks whether you understand its type, sensitivity, and how you protect it
PDPL requires organizations to know where personal data exists across all systems Classification identifies and documents every personal data element in the data catalog
✓ Classification identifies and documents every personal data asset in the Data Catalog.
Appropriate protection controls must be applied based on data type Sensitivity level automatically determines access and protection policies
✓ The sensitivity level automatically determines the access and protection policy.
Organizations must present documented evidence of data awareness and control during audits Classification reports are ready for audit at any time
✓ The classification report is ready for audit at any time.
In case of a breach, organizations must immediately identify affected data Pre-classified data enables fast and accurate response
✓ Prior classification enables an immediate and precise response.
Manual classification relies on the data owner to review each asset and assign its sensitivity level based on understanding of content and context. Automated classification relies on smart rules that analyze asset characteristics and field patterns to suggest a level automatically, with optional human review before confirmation. Governata supports both approaches and allows combining them
Yes. Governata supports classification levels approved by the National Data Management Office: Public, Internal, Sensitive, and Personal. Additional classification frameworks can also be configured to meet other regulatory requirements
PDPL requires organizations to know where personal data exists, its sensitivity level, and how it is protected. Data classification in Governata documents this information for every asset and makes compliance reporting audit-ready at any time
Yes. Classification can be reviewed and updated at any time, with full documentation of every change including date, user, and reason in a clear audit trail
When sensitivity level changes, the new classification automatically impacts access permissions and sharing policies across all connected Governata modules
Yes. Governata supports configuring parallel classification frameworks to meet different regulatory requirements simultaneously
Every unclassified data asset represents a delayed security decision and an active compliance risk
