Abstract

A method for tracking actions performed in association with a data set includes identifying multiple sources of historical information describing actions performed on the data set. The method periodically gathers this historical information from the multiple sources and compiles the historical information in a centralized repository. In certain embodiments, the method stores the historical information in the form of individual records associated with the data set. In the event any actions performed on the data set are the result of policies established for the data set, the method determines the policies associated with the actions where possible. The method includes these policies with the historical information in the centralized repository. A corresponding system and computer program product are also disclosed.
