The lifeblood of any business is your data and client/customer info. Mishandling that information could lead to disaster.
Learn how to develop a data governance program that will safeguard your business or organization's future.PRESENTATION INFORMATION:
The greatest threat to the long-term viability of any organization in the 21st Century
is the unauthorized release of mission-critical information.
In a web-based world where organizations increasingly rely on heterogeneous devices (i.e. PDA, BlackBerry, Laptop, netbooks, etc.) to access information in heterogeneous environments (i.e. office, library, home, coffee shop, etc.),
risk associated with safeguarding mission-critical data will directly influence a organizations’ valuation (not value). We can no longer rely on boundaries around containers or locations. All this must work on private, public and borrowed machines; not only corporate systems.
This is achieved by establishing a tone at the top of the organization, and
developing a "Control Conscious Corporate Culture.” A Control Conscious Corporate Culture is about building your organizational controls the right way from the beginning, and is woven throughout the fabric of who you are as an organization and defines the organization’s core value system/ethics.
To that end, organizations need to focus on making a paradigm shift from a compliance-based system to
developing an organizational culture that goes beyond compliance. A Control Conscious Corporate Culture will allow you to have a different approach to attacks on reputation and/or credibility. This is what ultimately leads to compliance.
Organizations that develop a comprehensive and
robust data governance program will be in a better position to serve its customers’ as we move further into the 21st Century.
