Does access to unstructured data need to be managed? If so, will someone or some persons need to decide who gets access to a given set of data? Are persons with knowledge about the data, knowledge of how the data may be used by the business, and its sensitivity the people best qualified to make access control decisions? Should the business, and not IT, designate an individual or individuals to make access control decisions? Should these designated individuals authorize and review access as the business deems appropriate? Assuming the answers to the questions above are "Yes," then we can conclude the following: Unstructured data needs an owner, or steward, that will make access control decisions, utilizing their knowledge of the data and its business context in accordance with business policy.
