Introduction to Information Governance: Concepts and Fundamentals

Information governance (IG) is now seen as a crucial initiative in leading organizations. IG is about minimizing information risks and costs while maximizing its business value. IG is, in short, the ability to secure, control and optimize information. But IG has often been presented as a complicated and blurry concept, and IG programs have often fallen short of their aims. This little book will provide you with crystal-clear definitions of IG and its concepts, give you a high-level understanding of the drivers and benefits of IG, help you develop the business case, and show you how to launch and manage an ongoing IG program.
