Q3 Tech Xchange Focus Group: What are you doing to create a strong data governance for your county?

Friday, Sept. 6, 2024 |  12:00 - 1:00 PM Eastern Time  

Join us for a robust discussion that unpacks best practices in data governance. Do you know where your data "crown jewels" are located? Do you struggle with “Shadow IT”? Do you have a data asset inventory? How is your data preserved and secured against technology failures or cyber-crimes?  Counties are comprised of individual departments, many with independent elected officials. Current data governance strategies need to account for data in all forms:  on premise, cloud, storage providers (e.g. OneDrive, DropBox), collaboration platforms (e.g. Teams, Webex), email, non-digital (paper), removeable media, etc. A strong governance model will cover data from creation to coordinated and planned deletion. If time permits, the association between a strong governance policy and the effective management of right-to-know requests will be explored.
