While setting direction for information management capabilities through prioritization and decision-making (Option B), developing control procedures to ensure information is adequately protected throughout its lifecycle (Option C), and monitoring processes that deliver and enhance the value of information assets (Option D) are important aspects of information governance, they are secondary to the overarching goal of ensuring regulatory compliance while optimizing the utilization of information.
