Data governance concerns how you govern your organisation’s information assets with respect to accuracy, timeliness, completeness and appropriateness, as well as managing and enforcing security, compliance and retention policies with respect to those assets, whether dictated by regulatory requirements or determined internally. It encompasses policy management, data stewardship and data quality. This paper discusses data governance, why it is important, how it works, and why you should care.
