Records Management and Data Security in the Local Government Units

Abstract

This research about records management and data security are critical components in the effective functioning of Local Government Units (LGUs). Proper management of records ensures that essential documents are accurately filed, easily accessible, and maintained in compliance with legal, regulatory, and policy requirements. Efficient records management systems support transparency, accountability, and smooth administrative processes, fostering public trust and effective governance. Meanwhile, data security safeguards the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of sensitive information, protecting both citizens and the government from unauthorized access, data breaches, and cyber threats. In an era of rapid technological advancements, LGUs must adopt modern tools and practices to securely store and manage records while ensuring compliance with data protection laws. The results of integrating efficient records management systems with robust data security measures to improve operational efficiency, prevent data loss, and uphold the public’s right to privacy and security in local government operations. The research offers suggestions for enhancing the records management and data security in the local government unit.
