Data governance is a quality control discipline for assessing, managing, using, improving, monitoring, maintaining and protecting organizational information. According to Irene Polikoff, CEO and cofounder of TopQuadrant, “As organizations start to realize the importance of their data assets, they are often faced with legacy data governance practices and systems that hamper them from unlocking the value from that data. TopBraid EDG is an agile, comprehensive response to today’s complex data governance needs designed to help enterprises maximize the value of their data by addressing any legacy barriers and future challenges.”
