TAKEAWAYS


Information governance (IG) manages an organization's information through its lifecycle and ensures access controls, confidentiality, legal holds, compliance, and knowledge sharing.
IG is not just records management rebranded; it encompasses a broader range of responsibilities and considerations.
Effective IG can make a significant difference in a company's operations and risk management, as demonstrated by a case study involving data movement monitoring.
Practitioners in the field of IG should focus on understanding the aspects of AI and machine learning that relate to data repositories, data security, and client data protection.
