Platform · Data Governance
Classification, retention, ownership, encryption, geographic scope, and structured PII / PHI / PCI tracking attached to every asset. Not a separate catalog, not another tool. The asset record is the governance record.
Why it matters
The standard data governance pattern is a separate registry, populated by data stewards, referencing assets that live in some other inventory. Two systems of record, manual reconciliation, and an obligation to keep both true when nobody has time to.
Alvor models governance as a tab on the asset record. The data classification, the retention period, the data owner, the encryption status, the geographic scope, the structured PII / PHI / PCI tags, and the field-level inventory all live on the same entity that holds the asset's dependencies, vulnerabilities, and continuity plan.
That means GDPR data mapping, HIPAA PHI inventory, and PCI DSS cardholder data scoping are not separate exercises. They are queries against the asset record. The compliance picture and the inventory picture are the same picture.

Where it fits
Questions
Yes. Every asset in Alvor has a Data tab covering data classification, retention, ownership, encryption status, geographic scope, and structured data-type tracking. Each data record carries a health score, lifecycle state (Draft or Active), and a confidentiality tag (Public, Internal, Confidential, Restricted).
