The “Data Governance Trifecta” is where compliance mandates for data security, consumer privacy, and generative AI converge. Infotel introduces this concept in a new white paper that addresses the critical challenges organizations face in managing data governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) in an increasingly complex regulatory landscape.

According to the white paper, Managing Governance, Risk, and Compliance in the Wild West of Converging Data Security and Consumer Privacy Policy, this convergence often creates data management challenges for large organizations as they grapple with siloed teams attempting to manage compliance for tens of thousands of employees, customers and partners across their enterprises.
“Organizations today face unprecedented challenges in managing risk in their data centers,” said Arnaud Siminski, Software Division Director at Infotel. “With the average cost of a data breach at about $5 million, and 68% of breaches involving human error, it’s clear that traditional approaches are no longer sufficient. This whitepaper offers a practical framework for building what we call the ‘Compliance Alliance,’ a collaborative approach that transforms governance challenges into opportunities for innovation and competitive advantage.”

The 7-Step Action Plan
A key part of the white paper is a seven-point action plant for robust data governance, which emphasizes the need for:
- Bridging silos across departments
- Cultivating security-first culture
- Embracing a compliance alliance
- Implementing smart, integrated technologies
- Preparing for AI governance
- Staying ahead of regulatory curves
- Quantifying and communicating the blue of governance initiatives
The full white paper, or an executive summary detailing implementation strategies for data protection officers, privacy leaders, and business unit managers, is available on the Infotel website.
