Defining data governance and data classification
So, what is data governance and how does it relate to cyber resilience?
Existing under the broad umbrella of data management, data governance is a program — implemented via policies and standards — intended to ensure the availability, quality, and security of an organization’s data in accordance with applicable regulations and obligations (e.g., adhering to industry standards, fulfilling requirements for certifications, etc.).
Within data governance, data classification is the process of separating and organizing data into relevant groups (“classes”) based on their shared characteristics, such as the level of sensitivity, risks they present, and the compliance regulations that protect them.
Data governance underpins cyber resilience plans
An intelligent data governance program delivers several beneficial outcomes for organizations:
- It helps to ensure the availability, quality, and security of an organization’s data, making it a foundational pillar of business continuity.
- Data governance helps improve overall data accuracy and impacts outcomes based on that data — which can range from comparatively simple day-to-day business decisions and operations to more complex, forward-looking initiatives including AI-focused programs.
- It helps to support organizational efforts to comply with regulations and other obligations, making it a cornerstone of compliance.
- An effective data governance program also permeates the entire organization, increasing data literacy, data accessibility, and data scalability.
Do you know where your data is?
Of course, disaster recovery planning cannot start without a clear understanding and mapping of your data and its significance to your business. What data is crucial for us to continue running our operations? Who needs access to which data to do their job? Where do we store all of this critical data?
Knowing the answers to these questions will start your journey towards ensuring continuity in cases of data loss or cyberattacks. This is achieved through an efficient and effective data governance framework.
