Title: Information Governance, <scp>IT</scp> Governance, Data Governance
Abstract: There has been a great deal of confusion around the term information governance (IG), and how it is distinct from other similar industry terms such as information technology (IT) governance and data governance. This chapter discusses the differences and includes examples in hopes of clarifying what the meaning of each is, and how they are related. It delves into more detailed definitions and a comparison of the three. Data governance is a newer, hybrid quality control discipline that includes elements of data quality, data management, IG policy development, business process improvement, and compliance and risk management. Data governance can be seen as part of IT governance, which is also a part of a broader program of information governance. There are several IT governance frameworks that can be used as a guide to implementing an IT governance program. IT governance seeks to align business objectives with IT strategy to deliver business value.
