# KYE Protocol™ for Open Data & Data Portals

Public-sector portals, regulator data portals, smart-city hubs, research catalogues, health data catalogues, NGO portals, infrastructure transparency portals, enterprise data catalogues and AI training-data catalogues — under a single KYE Protocol™ governance plane.

## One sector, many portal platforms

The Open Data & Data Portals sector covers nine portal classes. KYE Protocol™ governs them through the canonical Connector Profile™ — the same protocol primitives, different connector adapters per platform.

- Public-sector open-data portals (national + local government)
- Regulator data portals (FCA / EBA / EU agency / national regulators)
- Smart-city data hubs
- Research data catalogues (NIH / EBI / Zenodo / Dataverse)
- Health data catalogues
- NGO / humanitarian data portals
- Infrastructure transparency portals
- Enterprise internal data catalogues
- AI training-data catalogues

CKAN is the featured platform (40%+ of global open-data portals run on CKAN). Other platforms in the same sector pack: Socrata, Junar, ArcGIS Hub, dKAN.

## What KYE Protocol™ adds to a data portal

- **Authority** — who is allowed to publish, update, delete or expose each dataset, and under what authority chain.
- **Purpose** — the declared purpose of every dataset publication, bound to licence + jurisdiction + retention.
- **Evidence** — a signed Evidence Pack™ on every publication / update / harvest / licence change, replayable offline.
- **Audit replay** — auditors and regulators can replay any publication decision against the canonical schemas. No screenshots; no spreadsheets.
- **Consultant support** — KYE Protocol™-vetted CKAN specialists in the directory, attribution-tracked.
- **Sensitive-data review** — V2 connector triggers a human review before a personal-data flag flips.

## Frameworks aligned

The Open Data & Data Portals sector pack aligns with:

- **UK** — UK Open Government Licence (OGL), Local Government Transparency Code, FOIA
- **EU** — Open Data Directive (Reg. 2019/1024), INSPIRE, GDPR
- **US** — OPEN Government Data Act, OMB Memo M-19-23
- **Cross-sector** — DCAT-AP, ISO 19139, schema.org/Dataset, OGC API Records
