The best course of action to enable effective resource management is to assign resources based on business priorities. Resource management is the process of enhancing efficiency and guiding the use of such project-critical resources as employees, equipment, and tools1. To manage resources effectively, it is important to align them with the business objectives and goals, and to allocate them according to the urgency and importance of the tasks2. By assigning resources based on business priorities, the organization can ensure that the most critical and valuable projects are completed on time and within budget, and that the resources are used optimally and productively3.

Before an IT strategy committee can approve an IT risk assessment framework, the most important thing to have established is enterprise definitions for risk impact and probability. This is because a risk assessment framework is an approach for prioritizing and sharing information about the security risks posed to an information technology organization1. To do this effectively, the organization needs to have a common understanding of how to measure and communicate the likelihood and consequences of different risks. Without consistent definitions for risk impact and probability, the risk assessment framework might not be aligned with the enterprise's risk appetite and tolerance, and might not provide meaningful or actionable results.

Analysis of data flows and the full data life cycle should be conducted at the enterprise level, because it provides a holistic and comprehensive view of how data is created, stored, processed, used, and disposed of across the entire organization. By conducting data analysis at the enterprise level, the financial institution can ensure that the data integration from branch locations is aligned with the business objectives, needs, and expectations, and that the data quality, security, and compliance are maintained throughout the data life cycle. Data analysis at the enterprise level can also help to identify and address any data gaps, issues, or risks that may affect the regulatory reporting requirements or the performance and value of the data. According to Data Life Cycle and Data Governance What CDOs and CISOs Can Learn, "Data governance is an enterprise-wide program that requires a holistic approach to managing data throughout its life cycle."
