“THE EXPANDING ROLE OF DATA PROTECTION INTO CORPORATE GOVERNANCE, REGULATORY COMPLIANCE, AND ENTERPRISE VALUE PROTECTION”
Presented by: Richard Scannell, “Co-founder of GlassHouse Technologies, SVP North American Consulting, and recognized industry speaker on business issues that CIO’s are struggling with”
Business problem: Data Protection has changed from being focused on Data Recovery to Enterprise Protection.
IT solution: A new set of technologies combined with a need for significantly more mature processes. Historically, system failures and data loss typically resulted in lost time to market, resulting in the cost of re-work, lost opportunity and personal inconvenience. More recently, as scrutiny around data management has increased both by regulators wanting transparency in business dealings and by consumers wanting to ensure their privacy and personal information is protected, data protection has expanded in definition to cover not only recovery from data loss, but also data security, disaster recovery, and regulatory compliance. Far from just additional cost of reproducing data, failures in data protection today can result in significant fines, brand confidence erosion and in the extreme criminal prosecution. With this shifting focus comes a need for even tighter controls and more mature processes in an area of IT all too often neglected as unsexy and of no value-add. Data Protection is fast becoming the Achilles heel of many corporate governance and policy decisions and as such IT executives must develop a comprehensive strategy to address it and maintain it as a center of excellence.
