Policy management relevant to data exchanges with third parties. How are you doing it and who is responsible for enforcing and maintaining those policies?

In the public sector, especially in state and local governments, this policy management role has traditionally been under the Chief Information Officer (CIO). In many cases there has been a policy team that works with the procurement organization(s) that ensure that the right contract language is contained in statements of work and requests for proposals.
Also, governance and enforcement of compliance with these policies and industry standards has been under the CISO, CTO, Chief Privacy Officers (CPOs) and other tech leaders who also ensure that policies, standards are procedures are up-to-date and relevant.
That being said, many public sector organizations are adding Chief Data Officers (CDOs) that do not necessarily report to the CIO. In some cases, these CDOs are in business areas or report to other senior leaders.
Really have seen the shift away from CIO to General Counsel/CCO.
