Is your organization sitting on mountains of outdated, duplicated, or disorganized data? It’s time to sweep out the cobwebs. In this episode of The CIOHour, we’ll explore practical strategies for data hygiene that go beyond storage savings — including how to improve data quality, streamline systems, and reduce risk. Join CIOs and data experts as we discuss how to build a culture of clean data, choose the right tools, and turn digital clutter into real business value.
Key Takeaways:
- Costly Errors: Inaccurate data can result in financial losses and missed opportunities.
- Security Vulnerabilities: Messy, unprotected data is an open invitation for cyberattacks.
- Non-Compliance: Falling foul of regulatory requirements can result in heavy fines and reputational damage
- Operational Inefficiencies: Disorganized data wastes valuable time and resources.
