Data Management Frameworks
CDMC
Cloud Data Management Capabilities
A framework for managing and protecting sensitive data in cloud, multi-cloud and hybrid environments, built around fourteen key controls covering classification, ownership, cataloguing, entitlements, and data sovereignty.
It is the cloud-native complement to DCAM rather than a replacement: the key controls are written to be automatable, which makes CDMC the more practical fit when your evidence has to come out of a lakehouse rather than a policy document.
