From data governance to AI & agents governanceagents
The importance of a data governance strategy lies in ensuring that corporate information is reliable, secure, and aligned with business needs. It is the necessary foundation for confidently driving AI, reducing risks, and maximizing the value of data.
This guide proposes a comprehensive, three-layered governance model that extends data governance practices to include artificial intelligence and autonomous agents. The approach is based on non-invasive implementation, formalizing and reinforcing existing responsibilities within the organization without creating additional burdens or requiring structural changes.
Building on this foundation, AI governance is incorporated, aimed at ensuring purposeful systems with human oversight and traceability, along with agent governance, focused on controlling the autonomy of systems capable of acting independently. The goal is to provide visibility, control, and confidence over the technologies used, the data that underpins them, and the risks associated with their adoption.
