Getting Started
Data Quality - Program Management
Data is a strategic asset that can lead a company to better decision-making, sustained growth, and a competitive advantage. A data quality governance program helps ensure a company's data assets' accuracy, reliability, and usability. Quality data provides stakeholders with confidence in the integrity of the data they rely on, thereby supporting strategic initiatives and fostering a culture of data-driven insights. Conversely, the absence of a data quality governance program can lead to inaccurate reporting, flawed analytics, and compromised business intelligence. Poor data quality negatively impacts operational efficiency, erodes stakeholder trust, and may result in compliance issues.
Data Quality - Operating Practices
Data quality operational practices ensure the reliability and accuracy of an organization's data, positively impacting decision-making and overall business performance. Operational practices help maintain high data quality standards by implementing measures such as validation checks, automated monitoring, regular assessments, and continuous improvement. On the negative side, the absence of robust data quality operational controls can lead to widespread errors, inefficiencies, and unreliable business processes. Poor data quality jeopardizes the integrity of operational insights, resulting in misinformed decisions, increased operational costs, and diminished trust among stakeholders.
Data Inheritance
Often your digital information is valuable financially or emotionally to family and friends. Be prepared for someone to manage your data in the event you become incapacitated or die.
Application Development Controls
Security holes in applications are sought by cyber criminal elements. Whether internal or external applications, security controls are needed to safeguard valuable information. Consistently adhering to basic application development controls reduces the possible vulnerabilities in your systems.
Bug Bounty
A growing number of companies who develop software or simply expose their software externally implement a bug bounty program. A bug bounty program provides an additional method to strengthen your cybersecurity position using knowledgeable third parties. Making the vulnerability disclosure program useful and sustainable requires steps which, if consistently performed, provide a great way to proactively reduce application and system security risks.
Environmental Sustainability - Program

At the same time, more consumers are wanting to buy more environmentally friendly products. An environmental sustainability program ensures you follow a structured approach for assessing, reporting, and continuously improving.

Business Ethics Practices
Practical steps are necessary to ensure ethical people are hired and employees know how to make sound ethical decisions on a day-to-day basis. Employees, including managers, need to be educated, trained, and engaged. A company must seek to improve the community around them. Creating an ethical organization requires effort to establish and maintain.
Business Ethics Management
Good ethical behavior leads to trusting employees, customers, partners, and vendors, which leads to better company performance. Poor ethics leads to negative feelings about the company, lost opportunities, and even criminal charges. Organizational integrity is created through an ethics program that emphasizes a code of ethics, leadership, self-assessment, confidential reporting, and continuous training.
