Responsible Authorities

A functional group of stakeholders with assigned or assumed roles, responsibilities, and accountability for effective implementation and evolution of DPI safeguards.

Navigate the Framework: The Framework can be explored by starting with the selection of a Responsible Authority (R1-R5). Each Responsible Authority has a specific role to play at every life cycle stage (L1-L5) of the DPI. You can explore what actions each Authority must take to advance the Universal DPI Safeguards Principles (F1-F9, O1-O9), through processes and practices so as to avoid/mitigate certain identified risks.
