Expertise in Information Management

IQBG Consulting Firm stands out as a leader in information management consulting. Our team comprises seasoned professionals with in-depth knowledge of data security, compliance regulations, and best practices.

Records Management Audit

One of the critical aspects post-data breach is assessing your records management practices. IQBG conducts a thorough records management audit to evaluate the lifecycle of your data—from creation to disposal. We examine how sensitive information is classified, stored, archived, and eventually destroyed.

By implementing efficient records management strategies, we help mitigate the risk of future data breaches.

IQBG specializes in conducting information governance audits to evaluate your data governance framework, policies, and procedures.
