Information Governance Maturity Assessment
Protect and Enhance Your Information Assets
Most companies embrace the benefits of “big” or structured data and the related business intelligence it delivers. But with big data comes big responsibility for managing immediate and future legal and regulatory risk. Information governance goes beyond retention and disposition to include privacy, access controls, and other compliance issues.
It’s no surprise that information governance often seems disruptive, prohibitively expensive, and difficult to make a priority. The price of ignoring information governance, however, can be huge costs and potential sanctions down the road. Fortunately, there is a faster and easier way to gain business value from information resources while improving the integrity and security of critical business data.
