Governance and regulatory compliance are essential aspects of data management that ensure organizations manage data responsibly, securely, and in accordance with legal requirements. Compliance with governance and regulatory standards helps protect an organization from legal, financial, and reputational risks. These frameworks ensure that sensitive data is handled appropriately, minimizing the risk of data breaches, financial penalties, and loss of customer trust.
Governance refers to the rules, practices, and processes by which organizations manage their data, ensuring data integrity, availability, and security. Regulatory compliance, on the other hand, ensures that organizations meet all the legal and regulatory requirements related to data security, privacy, and protection.
