About the Commonwealth Data Trust

The Commonwealth Data Trust is a contract agreement between the ODGA and Executive Branch agencies, localities, and other organizations geared toward data sharing and security.

Benefits of the CDT

  • The Commonwealth Data Trust is a safe, secure, and legally compliant information sharing environment that establishes consistent requirements for trust members through a standardized data sharing agreement process. 

  • The data trust provides a scalable alternative to multiple “point-to-point” sharing between agencies. 

  • The trust promotes trust among its members through common rules for data security, privacy, and confidentiality.

  • The trust reduces technical costs by onboarding to a single environment using standard National Information Exchange Model (NIEM) protocols.

  • The Data Trust will ensure and support data discovery and analytics for agencies and organizations across the Commonwealth of Virginia.

  • Data Trust members get access to Dataversity Training
