Information governance involves the business practices, policies, controls, and oversight functions needed to manage risk, sustain compliance, and achieve the desired value of information assets. It addresses privacy, data protection, information security, proprietary information management, intellectual property management, and related disciplines.


Such assets containing personal information—about customers, employees, and others—always come with compliance obligations and business risks related to privacy and data protection. Those assets, and other proprietary information, also need to be managed in such a way to derive acceptable value. Information governance allows an organization to manage risks and compliance while gaining value from information.
