Built for Your Team
Dawiso speaks the language of every stakeholder in your data governance program.
Answer "where is citizen personal data?" in minutes
You map where personal data resides and flows across systems with automated data lineage. Your DPO pulls up a full audit trail for supreme audit institutions or data protection authorities on demand. On-premise deployment keeps citizen data inside your perimeter.
One catalog for all information systems, from registers to analytics
You build a central inventory of all information systems, databases, BI reports, and data flows. Your IT team meets national IS inventory obligations with a complete map of the landscape. Scales across departments and agencies.
Unify data language across departments so cross-agency sharing works
You define shared terms in the business glossary and link departmental terminology to technical metadata. Multilingual support for EU projects and cross-border collaboration. Workflow-driven governance with data owners, stewards, and custodians.
Proven Use Cases in Public Sector
From information system catalogs to citizen data protection — here is how public institutions use Dawiso.
Information System Inventory & Catalog
Your institution runs dozens to hundreds of information systems without a central overview. You build a catalog of all IS with links to business owners, technical administrators, data flows, and the legal basis for operation. Your IT department meets national IS inventory obligations.
GDPR & Citizen Data Protection
GDPR requires knowing where personal data resides, how it flows, and who has access. You use data lineage to map personal data across systems. Your DPO answers regulator questions in minutes instead of weeks.
Open Data Identification & Preparation
EU Open Data Directive requires publishing selected datasets. You identify, classify, and approve datasets for publication through a governance workflow that ensures only reviewed data reaches the public.
Data Discovery & Internal Data Marketplace
Most departments don't know what data exists two floors away. You scan your systems and build a searchable catalog. Teams discover existing datasets, request access, and share data products across departments without duplicating work.
