Written by Dr. Jagreet Kaur Gill | 20 Jan 2023

Data governance is an approach to managing and organizing data during its life cycle, from acquisition to use to disposal. Every organization needs Data Governance for effective digital transformation. Governance of Data makes sure data follows both internal and external mandates and data is secure, private, accurate, available, and usable for the organization. It also includes the efforts users must make, the processes they must follow, and the technology that supports them throughout the life cycle. Major benefits are better and timely decisions, enhanced compliance, and greater trust in data.
