Checkpoints(检查点(Checkpoints))¶
Checkpoints is a data governance tool that supports purpose justification and auditability. Checkpoints allows you to interrupt potentially sensitive user interactions with prompts requesting justification for the activity. These justifications can then be reviewed in the platform to ensure adherence to data protection, governance, and compliance policies.

What is a checkpoint?¶
A checkpoint is a prompt that asks a user to provide a justification for an interaction in Foundry. The user’s justification is recorded and made available for later review to administrator users in the Checkpoints application. Users can also always review historical justifications for their own interactions in the Checkpoints application.

The prompt in each checkpoint and the type of justification required is set in a checkpoint configuration. Once submitted, each checkpoint produces a checkpoint record that contains the contextual data associated with an interaction governed by a checkpoint. This includes the timestamp of the interaction, the user who performed the interaction, the justification provided in the checkpoint, the checkpoint type, and any data (resources, objects, and Markings, for example) associated with the interaction.
Key features¶
- Customize prompts and justifications: Data protection or compliance policies can vary widely based on organizational needs and use cases. Checkpoints allows for granular configurability to determine who gets shown a checkpoint, for what kinds of interactions, what language the checkpoint contains, and how the user should justify their interaction.
- Review justifications in real-time: Data protection and compliance teams or administrators can review checkpoints in Foundry in real-time as users justify their interactions.
- Deep platform integration for key Foundry interactions: Checkpoints is integrated into 60+ different interactions in Foundry, which allows for seamless requests for justification at a variety of points in user workflows. This happens both when the interactions are initiated synchronously by a user, or asynchronously via a request in Approvals. Checkpoints can be used to remind users of organizational policies, suggest more privacy-protective workflows, or better understand why users are making certain interactions for improved oversight.
Access the Checkpoints application¶
The Checkpoints application allows users to configure checkpoints and review checkpoint records. All users can use the Checkpoints application to review checkpoint records that they have submitted. The Checkpoints application can be accessed in the navigation panel in the Data Governance category.
Users can also configure checkpoints or review checkpoint records for entire Organizations or spaces.

检查点(Checkpoints)¶
检查点(Checkpoints)是一种数据治理工具,支持目的证明和可审计性。检查点允许您通过提示用户提供活动理由来中断潜在敏感的用户交互。这些理由随后可在平台中审核,以确保符合数据保护、治理和合规策略。

什么是检查点?¶
检查点(Checkpoint) 是一个提示框,要求用户为其在 Foundry 中的交互提供理由。用户的理由会被记录,并可供管理员用户在检查点应用程序中后续审核。普通用户也可以随时在检查点应用程序中查看自己交互的历史理由。

以上截图使用的是模拟数据。
每个检查点中的提示内容以及所需的理由类型均在检查点配置(Checkpoint Configuration) 中设置。提交后,每个检查点会生成一条检查点记录(Checkpoint Record),其中包含与受检查点管控的交互相关的上下文数据。这包括交互的时间戳、执行交互的用户、检查点中提供的理由、检查点类型,以及与交互相关的任何数据(例如资源、对象和标记(Markings))。
主要功能¶
- 自定义提示和理由: 数据保护或合规策略可能因组织需求和使用场景的不同而差异很大。检查点支持精细化的配置,以确定哪些用户会在何种交互中看到检查点、检查点包含什么语言内容,以及用户应如何证明其交互的合理性。
- 实时审核理由: 数据保护和合规团队或管理员可以在 Foundry 中实时审核用户提交的检查点理由。
- 深度平台集成,覆盖关键 Foundry 交互: 检查点已集成到 Foundry 中 60 多种不同的交互中,从而能够在用户工作流的多个环节无缝请求理由。这既适用于用户同步发起的交互,也适用于通过审批(Approvals)异步发起的请求。检查点可用于提醒用户组织策略、建议更注重隐私保护的工作流,或更好地理解用户为何进行某些交互,从而加强监督。
访问检查点应用程序¶
检查点应用程序允许用户配置检查点并审核检查点记录。所有用户均可使用检查点应用程序查看自己提交的检查点记录。检查点应用程序可通过导航面板中的数据治理(Data Governance) 类别进行访问。
用户还可以为整个组织(Organizations)或空间(spaces)配置检查点或审核检查点记录。
