K uses a unique algorithm to calculate a data item’s Trust Score.

The Trust Score can help:

  • Guide data users to utilise trusted data

  • Help data managers improve the trust level of their data to drive usage

The Trust Score is calculated using a range of attributes including:

  • The usage of the data product/asset across the Organisation: Frequency and variety of usage

  • Who uses the data product/asset: Variety and type of users

  • Use cases: If the data product/asset has been verified for a business use case

  • Domain: if If the data product/asset has been assigned to a data

  • Documentation: If the data product/asset has been well documented (e.g. description, owners, and stewards, linked to collections)

  • Lineage: If the data product/asset provenance is known

  • Quality of data profile: The number of open Open issues assigned to the data product/asset will penalise its trust score

Each attribute can boost or penalise the trust score. For example:

  • The more varied and frequent the usage, the higher the trust score

  • if a data product/asset has been verified, the product/asset’s trust score will be boosted to a high trust score, even if its usage is only moderate compared to other data products/assets.

  • If a data product has many issues raised against it, the trust score will be penalised until the issues are resolved.
