The challenges around data governance are evolving rapidly, driven by the rapid adoption of generative AI, stringent regulatory requirements, and heightened cybersecurity risks. As we approach 2025, organisations are realising that traditional approaches to data governance are no longer sufficient. At the same time, longtime aspects of cybersecurity such as Zero Trust and multifactor authentication (MFA) are taking on new importance, going from optional to imperative – and helping to underpin security, compliance, and governance efforts.

The targets span commercial enterprises, to government agencies (just ask the Police Service of Northern Ireland, which recently suffered a devastating data breach traced to phishing). New generative AI-powered tools like FraudGPT are only accelerating the problem by allowing cybercriminals to create increasingly well-crafted and targeted phishing emails at scale. This means there are no longer as many of the typo-riddled messages of yore to help wave a cautionary flag when someone receives…
