With good governance, enterprise data can be more consistent even across divisional boundaries, more accessible and easier to use, enabling better informed business decisions. There are lots of tools available in market but below are the few best practices to improve data strategy and governance.1. Measure an effectiveness of your data governance program
2. Create a virtual compliance team with the data practitioners

In my opinion, the best way to improve data governance is to obsolete data integrations and the endless copying of data. There are new advancements in this space which is a data collaboration platform.

I think it starts with understanding what you are trying to protect. Start with establishing a data inventory. Understanding what is collected and stored is needed to justify what you are collecting and how long you keep specific elements of data for. Once you have and understanding of what you are trying to protect then you can look at access control, monitoring, encyrption etc, based on the business needs to protect the data.Director, Strategic Security Initiatives in Software, 10,001+ employees

One of the problems we have not yet been able to figure out is the impact of quantity on the sensitivity of data. As an example; if you would share the price of a product with a customer, then that is absolutely fine. If you share a price-list then that data may be more sensitive, and if you share the complete pricing structure that may be super-sensitive. Mechanized solutions (DLP) have problems catching those nuances, which is where for now user education still seems to be the best line of defense.Content you might like

Data affords us a high level of confidence in the decisions we make, so it’s essential to figure out how you can get more data to help you plan. Before the Russia-Ukraine war started, open source data was used by regular civilians to detect troops mobilizing to the border through Google Maps imagery. UAVs and drones can be leveraged for this imagery. This data can even be the input into VR/AR, which can be incorporated at large for combat, but also for use cases such as forklift training.
