Supply chain and its management require all stakeholders and companies to share information and data as well as to have access to real-time data. To be able to have a smooth process with minimum disruptions data sharing in supply chain is essential. However, it also creates the risk of the information that the data holds being compromised.
iSHARE, a uniform set of agreements about how various parties of the supply identify, authenticate and authorise one another, allows secure data sharing and data sovereignty. Our iSHARE accelerator provides an easy and hassle-free solution to prepare your ERP system for iSHARE adoption – without having to deal with all the technical configurations. This way, your company becomes part of a secure supply chain, in a quick and easy manner.
Data sovereignty with iSHARE and IDSA
As mentioned, sharing data often requires extra security as it’s an asset you need to protect. This makes data sovereignty the key player. Limiting the level of access and granting permission to only those who need access to the data, making sure that the data is stored safely, that it is shared with the access holders on a given time brings relief to organisations. The International Data Spaces Association (IDSA), comes into play at this stage. IDSA is an international network in which businesses and research organisations are actively involved in designing a trustworthy architecture for the data economy.* Their aim is to create a worldwide data exchange landscape where data providers stay in control of their data. Data providers are allowed to define conditions and set restrictions for the use of their data in order to be able to achieve this sovereignty.
iSHARE is following the first two stages of achieving the data-driven economy goal defined by IDS; trust and security. This allows organisations to get started quickly with IDS and lower the barriers for IDS implementations, which arise when implementing the full scope from the very beginning.**
The data-driven economy is here, so why wait to be part of it? Get in touch with us now to learn more about how iSHARE can facilitate this with your supply chain and to get the Rojo iSHARE Accelerator.
