How does implementing data governance impact an organization's ability to find and utilize critical data?

Implementing data governance can have a significant impact on an organization's ability to find and utilize critical data effectively. Data governance refers to the overall management of data assets within an organization, including data quality, data integrity, data security, and data management processes. Here's how data governance can influence an organization's ability to find and utilize critical data:

Data Discovery and Documentation: Data governance initiatives often involve creating and maintaining a comprehensive inventory of the organization's data assets. This includes documenting where critical data resides, who owns it, how it's collected, processed, and used. Such documentation makes it easier for employees to locate and understand the data they need, enhancing the organization's ability to find critical data.

Data Quality and Consistency: Data governance emphasizes data quality standards and practices. By ensuring that critical data is accurate, consistent, and up-to-date, the organization can trust the information it retrieves. Improved data quality reduces the likelihood of errors or misinterpretations when utilizing critical data.

Access Control and Security: Data governance includes defining access controls and security measures for data. This helps protect critical data from unauthorized access, ensuring that only authorized personnel can utilize it. This controlled access prevents data misuse and maintains data integrity.

Data Classification and Categorization: As part of data governance, data assets are often classified based on sensitivity and criticality. This classification helps prioritize resources for securing and managing critical data appropriately. It also aids in quickly identifying which data is essential for specific purposes.

Data Lifecycle Management: Data governance involves establishing processes for data lifecycle management, including data creation, storage, usage, archiving, and deletion. Understanding the lifecycle of critical data ensures that it is retained only as long as needed and disposed of securely when no longer required, thus reducing clutter and potential confusion.

Data Ownership and Accountability: Assigning data ownership and establishing clear accountability for data assets encourages responsible data usage. When individuals or teams are accountable for specific data sets, they are more likely to maintain and utilize the data correctly.

Data Standardization: Data governance often includes standardizing data formats, naming conventions, and data definitions. This makes it easier for employees to recognize and work with critical data consistently, promoting better data utilization across the organization.

Data Integration and Interoperability: By implementing data governance practices, organizations can facilitate better integration and interoperability between different systems and departments. This enhances the ability to combine and analyze critical data from various sources, enabling more informed decision-making.

Data Retention Policies: Data governance defines retention policies that determine how long data should be retained. Applying these policies to critical data ensures that it remains available and usable for the required duration, avoiding premature deletion or excessive storage costs.

Compliance and Regulatory Requirements: Data governance helps organizations comply with industry regulations (such as GDPR, HIPAA, etc.) by ensuring that critical data is handled according to legal requirements. This compliance enables organizations to avoid penalties and legal issues while utilizing their data effectively.

In summary, implementing data governance establishes a structured framework for managing data assets. This framework enhances an organization's ability to locate, access, and utilize critical data by improving data quality, security, documentation, and overall data management practices. As a result, organizations can make more informed decisions and derive greater value from their data assets.

Information Management is Key to Security, & Meaningful Development

Oyewole: The President/Chairman of the Governing Council, Institute of Information Management (IIM) Africa

Addressing the current security challenges and achieving meaningful development in the country could still be elusive if information management principle is sidelined. In an interview with James Emejo, he appraises among other things, the country’s level of compliance with global best practice

On the concept of information management practice he posited that Information management has to do with the creation, collection and management of information from one or more sources and how information is classified, used, shared, retained, accessed and disposed. Thereby, ensuring that information is only available to authorized personnel or those with right to that information with control over the structure, processing and delivery of information.

History of the IIM?

The Institute of Information Management (IIM) is a professional membership driven Institute, developed to serve the growing community of Data, Information, Records, Document and Archives Management professionals who are tasked with managing the dynamic information life cycle within the enterprise.  The Institute was established by the Records and Information Management Awareness (RIMA) Foundation in 2010, following the various gaps identified in the information management industry in Nigeria and Africa ranging from lack of records and information management standards, competence, certification etc. The Institute since inception has also been involved in identifying gaps within the various sectors of the economy and also proffering solutions to them under the Data Access Intervention Initiative (DAII). Recently, the Institute Introduced MedicPurse, a solution developed to help bridge the information gap within the health sector, thereby allowing medical practitioners and other care givers access to quality patients health records from any internet enabled device.

Government & information management in Nigeria

Government urgently need to

give adequate attention to proper management of information by empowering  various government agencies through capacity building and investment in the development of infrastructures required for good information governance in the Country. These are the primary tools any serious minded government should be paying attention to, without which it would be difficult for them to deliver on their electoral promises.

Today in Nigeria, Government projection when preparing the annual budget is usually based on information which cannot really be substantiated by any quality fact and that remained the primary reason why the citizens have not been enjoying the dividend of democracy for years. Result can only be derived when government decisions, security agencies, parastatals, etc based their decision making on quality information.

ensure that all government agencies are held accountable for service delivery by assessing what needs to be done in preparation to make plans and decide what choices and risks that will shape those plans. The shape of such an assessment should be to establish a small task force with responsibility for developing an action plan; review the current condition of information, content and supporting infrastructure in all government agencies and parastatals; and map the output from the review against best practice to identify necessary actions.

Things are working in other parts of the world not because they are more knowledgeable or intelligent than us, but because they give priority to quality data collection and processing, on which informed decisions are being made. 

What does increased certification ‎of public and private agencies by external bodies in recent times i.e info security certification say about information management in Nigeria?

Personally, I believe certification is good and also encouraged. In practical terms, do those agencies really have what it takes to maintaining those certifications? Individuals and organisations in this part of the world only prepare to take and pass certification testing and requirements. How that translates into business process improvement is another issue. The positive aspect of the crave for certification is that, it will continue to promote the awareness for proper management and security of information in the society, and with time it will become part of our culture.

Is Nigeria in tune with global standard & What is the quality of information management in the country? Still very low, as there isn’t any reliable source in the Country as at today, that one can really base the assessment on.  There is need for government to support efforts of individuals and organisations in the country working to ensure that the Information Management industry in the country is standardized and fully developed.

The Institute of Information Management (IIM), has initiated a good number of standards, certifications and data access intervention initiatives all aimed at ensuring reliable and quality information in the society, which we think the government should encourage and leverage on some the best practices and lessons learned the platform has got to offer the Country and the entire African continent
