COBIT 2019 APO01.07: APO01.07 Define information (data) and system ownership

The enterprise defines and maintains who is responsible for owning information (data) and information systems; owners classify their information and systems and give them protection matching that classification. Guidelines make sure that information items are classified suitably and in the same way across the enterprise. A register of data and information systems records their owners, custodians and classifications, covering outsourced systems and systems whose ownership is shared. Critical (high-value) data, information and systems are told apart from those that are not critical, and each category gets suitable protection.
