I would also point out that many of the same Index and Classification Management (ICM) tools that one might use to crawl and organize unstructured records can also be used to crawl and find privacy content.

Subject: How Would You Answer?

So, if an IT manager asked you "What does records management have to do with information security?" how would you answer him/her? 

 

I think I would organize my answer thusly:

 

  "Inventory - records managers are versed in records inventories.
Knowing what information you have and where it resides is the first step toward securing it.

 

  Retention - establishing a policy wherein information is destroyed after its useful life has ended will reduce the risk of data breach.

 

  Compliance-the same legal research that is used for developing the retention schedule also identifies any outside rules regarding data security that apply to the organization, ex: FACTA.

 

  Destruction Method - records managers are versed in proper policies, methods, and controls for the destruction of records and information."

 

I would be interested to know how others might answer this question.
