Do not commit the seven deadly sins of information risk management
Information Risk constitutes any possible event that will prevent information from being used as the business intended it to. Successful information management mitigates all information related risks and ensures that information is relevant, consistent and available to support business continuity plans. There is a series of important lessons that all organisations must learn in order to ensure that information risk is appropriately contained so that you don’t commit the ‘seven deadly sins’ of information management:
1. Running the risk of disaster or technical failure
All of the IT systems in use across the organisation pose a potential risk to business continuity. Although probably the easiest group of information risks to manage, organisations must ensure that the risks of all system stored information are understood and controlled as part of an overall business continuity strategy. The simplest to manage are transactional systems like SAP that generate records and are subject to operational compliance issues. However attention should also be paid to ‘line of business’ systems such as loan processing or claims management. These tend to reside within a particular department, are generally process and workflow oriented, and provide their own information and content repositories.
