Information Quality Management

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Information Quality Management is an information technology management discipline, which encompasses the COBIT Information Criteria of efficiency, effectiveness, confidentiality, integrity, availability, compliance, and reliability.

It is held by some that the separation of software engineering, infrastructure management, and information security management leads to difficulties and failures. Examples abound[citation needed] where frustrated information security professionals are confronted with newly developed applications that lack the most fundamental security controls, and that have taken no notice in the requirements gathering of the information risks that the application might introduce.

Thus, leading edge companies are starting to integrate these information quality management disciplines along with the discipline of information risk management. This will gaurantee that the software engineering frameworks of the future ensure that the information risks are established and that appropriate information security controls are designed in at the start of projects.
