Small Projects Drive Big Outcomes
The biggest mistake that many make is assuming information governance is a one-time project. Set up some policies and procedures and your plan is in place. It’s not that simple. You won’t be successful if you try to do everything at once. The complexity will kill any small successes you have. What works best is to take on an information governance solution that has a clear beginning and end, a clear scope and clear success factors.
When you break information governance down into a series of projects or “mini-strategies”, it’s much easier to ensure your information is well managed going forward. Here are the most common use cases we hear:
Information Governance Use Cases
Reduce the Costs and Risks of “Dark” Content
Find and remediate obsolete, duplicate and sensitive content hidden in repositories throughout your organization, reducing volume, costs, and risks associated with hidden content.
Get a 360-degree view of your information (Cognitive Search)
Connect, discover, organize and query information from multiple data sources, combining AI technologies and manual classification to give you a 360-degree view of your information.
Application Decommissioning and Data Archiving
Decommission legacy systems by identifying, moving and managing content housed in those systems, ensuring compliance while eliminating unneeded content, and archiving strategic content.
Effectively Manage Your Records
Manage electronic records and apply enterprise retention policies relating to all types of content, wherever it is located, across your organization.
Address Compliance Requirements
Take on GDPR, Gramm Leach, NYDFS and other personal data and record-keeping requirements.
Migrating to the Cloud
Make your move to the cloud easier, faster and less expensive, by identifying and eliminating unneeded content first, and then organizing and migrating the rest.
