This presentation, co-hosted along with Zasio’s Virtual Coffee featuring guest presenter Frank Fazzio, will provide records and information management professionals with practical strategies for identifying and securing high-value and vital records across the enterprise. It will explore how to appraise the value of records using a decision tree that guides organizations in classifying information based on legal, operational, financial, and historical importance, and assigning appropriate protection levels in collaboration with IT, legal, and departmental stakeholders.

It will then cover key security measures, including access control protocols, system hardening techniques, data loss prevention (DLP) tools, encryption practices, the use of electronic vaults for long-term secure storage, and disaster recovery planning to ensure continuity and resilience. Attendees will leave with actionable insights and frameworks to strengthen their information governance and protect mission-critical data assets.

We look forward to you joining us!

Summary:

Information security is not just IT’s responsibility—it’s a crucial component of effective information governance. While records and information Management (RIM) and information security (InfoSec) teams may seem to speak different languages, they share a fundamental mission: protecting information’s confidentiality, integrity, and availability (the CIA triad).

This session empowers RIM professionals to become active partners in their organization’s information security efforts. Attendees will learn essential InfoSec concepts, understand how to translate between RIM and InfoSec terminology, and develop strategies for productive collaboration with security teams. This presentation provides practical knowledge that every modern RIM professional needs to succeed in an increasingly complex threat landscape.
