ABSTRACT
Recall that governance, as one of the three pillars in the governance, risk management, and compliance (GRC) model, concerns itself with the processes and systems that ensure the proper accountability for the conduct of an enterprise’s business. Data governance, as part of information technology (IT) governance within the overall governance framework, is required to ensure the preservation, availability, confidentiality, and usability of an enterprise’s data. These are all mandates that relate to data protection. And a major responsibility of data governance is to help with civil litigation.
