Presentation Summary:
Avoiding Risk, Achieving Compliance: Maintaining the Balance of Requirement and Convenience
Generally speaking, the policies and practices that improve the risk environment (lessen risk) create more annoyance and effort in the production environment. In the area of records management and information governance, making data more secure and information more governable always adversely affects accessibility and convenience. But, there are ways to meet the competing needs for balance and security, governability, and accessibility, and to lessen the discomfort.
Every business is differently run, differently organized. This presentation will address ways to assess your organization's needs and "comfort zones," methods to organize and classify data and information, monitor usage and access, and to make adjustments to the processes you put in place so that the people in your organization can work efficiently, securely and with as little disruption as possible.
