DISCUSSION 2:

Email as a major focus of Information Governance

Email communication has become the main center of the implementation of an information governance policy for two main reasons. First, emails are among the most preferred forms of communication in corporate environments, and second, emails have several weaknesses that they expose the companies to and, therefore, should be used with lots of care to protect not only the users but also their employers. Therefore it is relevant to understand the reasons why emails and more preferred and the weaknesses they present to the businesses to understand why they are the center of information governance in the current corporate world.

Emails are preferred as a means of corporate communication within and without of the companies because they are cost-effective and fast. The internet technology has allowed the sending and receiving of information within seconds of initiating communication (Lu, 2018). Emails are one of the forms of communication that allow for instant responses and therefore are very important. Also, unlike the use of pen and papers, emails, and cost-friendly as long as a person has internet, they do not have to pay for postage and other inconvenience that are associated with other forms of communication (Shepherd, 2006). Emails also store records of the messages that have been sent, and therefore backups can be retried. Emails are also safer than other electronic, written communication such as social media communications.

The widespread use of emails means that email communication continues to be a serious point of weakness for the companies that use them for communication. The compliance culture of the users of emails has put the mode of communication at the center of the focus of IT professionals to pressure employees into adopting a professional and effective culture concerning the storage, control, and disposal of messages (Tower, 2004). The fact that people mostly ignore company communication cultures when using emails leads to emails being the main target of lawsuits involving harassment and other issues. Therefore, even though the use of emails saves companies money and time, emails also make companies vulnerable to lawsuits and, therefore, financial losses that may result from the suits. Email management policies are, therefore, important for the improvement of efficiency at the workplace, ensuring legal compliance and the mitigation of risks.
