Database Governance -
How to Put the Right Controls in Place to Protect your Data

"21st century threats", like cyberattacks from inside and outside your company, information leakage, combined with an ever-increasing pressure from compliance regulations are forcing organizations to review and adapt their information security and governance strategies in order to protect critical information. One important finding from such review processes regularly is that the highest level of risk is resulting from database vulnerabilities.Thus it is time to introduce the concept of Database Governance and to put this into the context of your overall Corporate and IT Governance initiatives.

Database Governance is a core element of Information Governance. It is about defining controls and policies to adequately protect information in databases and the flow of this information. Like any approach to governance, Database Governance is a mix of organization and supporting technology, to define controls and to make them effective.
