Episode 99 — Records Management: Retention Schedules and Disposition

Records management defines how information is retained, archived, and ultimately disposed of. In this episode, we cover how cloud systems enforce retention schedules, integrate with compliance requirements, and apply defensible disposition when data is no longer required. Poor records management not only creates legal risk but also inflates costs and complexity.

On the exam, records management may appear in cross-domain questions, linking data security, compliance, and governance. By mastering these concepts, you’ll be prepared to demonstrate how cloud professionals ensure that information is both available when needed and defensibly destroyed when obligations end.
