Data governance is about understanding the data in your organization, its importance, who owns it, and where it exists. This enables you to effectively manage and secure it.

In order to protect data from unauthorized access, you will need to know how to map out a storage architecture and then apply the appropriate encryption for both data at rest and in transit.

In order to ensure data is trustworthy within the organization, you will need to understand information rights management, access control, file integrity, and auditing.

Through planned incident response, disaster recovery, business continuity, and backup strategy, organizations can ensure data is available when needed.
