Data

Data is the lifeblood of most companies and is often the target of cyber criminals, whether to steal or encrypt for ransom. Once the business drivers have been identified, you should inventory the data that is important to the lines of business. This should include documenting the format, volume, and locations of the data, and the associated data steward. In large organizations, this can be extremely challenging, but it is essential to have a clear picture of the storage and processing of the entity's crown jewels.
