Security governance is a framework that ensures an organization's security activities are aligned with its business objectives, risk profile, and regulatory requirements. It encompasses the policies, processes, and structures that guide how an organization manages and directs its security functions.
A Security Governance Committee is a group within an organization that provides oversight and guidance for the organization's cybersecurity strategies, policies, and risk management practices. It ensures that security initiatives align with business objectives and comply with relevant regulations. This committee plays a crucial role in establishing a secure and resilient environment by defining security strategies, reviewing security performance, and ensuring accountability for security-related matters.
