Certified in the Governance of Enterprise IT (CGEIT) — Question 329

Which of the following BEST facilitates governance oversight of data protection measures?

Answer options

• A. Information ownership
• B. Information classification
• C. Information custodianship
• D. Information life cycle management

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Information ownership is crucial because it establishes accountability for data protection measures, ensuring that someone is responsible for the governance of data. In contrast, information classification, custodianship, and life cycle management, while important, do not directly facilitate oversight in the same way that ownership does.
