Data Governance Made Easy (Paperback)

Paperback. Across the global economy, data has moved from being a quiet operational byproduct to becoming the single most valuable strategic asset many organisations hold. As firms digitise, the volume, velocity, and variety of the data they generate keep rising. Yet collecting data without the means to govern it does not create value. It creates exposure. Ungoverned data invites security breaches, compliance failures, eroded customer trust, and day-to-day operational drag.This book grew out of a practical gap. The shelves are full of technical manuals on database administration and advanced cybersecurity, but there is surprisingly little that explains data governance in plain terms to the business student, the early-career researcher, and the working manager. Data Governance Made Easy is written to close that gap. It treats governance not as a thicket of bureaucratic rules but as an enabling framework: one that builds trust, opens room for innovation, and keeps the organisation on the right side of the law. In effect, the aim of this book is to give readers a rounded understanding of data governance, security policy, and privacy regulation. Written with students of Business Analytics, Business Intelligence, and Information Systems in mind, it pairs theory with the way real enterprises operate around the world.
