Managing the information portfolio

Information portfolio governance provides the framework for understanding how data flows through your application landscape and how it supports core business capabilities. Understand the architecture dependencies created by information exchanges between applications. This visibility helps identify integration points, potential bottlenecks, and areas where failure could disrupt downstream systems or business processes. Assess the impact of application and server outages on business capabilities to strengthen resilience planning. Document where sensitive data is used, stored, and transferred to ensure compliance with data protection regulations and to mitigate security risks. By managing your information portfolio with precision, you gain control over data integrity, operational continuity, and strategic alignment between IT and business.

	Manage technology standards by assessing information dependencies with the business question What are our architectural dependencies?
	The business question Where do we use sensitive data? helps you to identify inconsistencies and redundancies in the way business data are used in the IT landscape and identify potential risks you to your company's sensitive data.
