Compliance & Governance
Moving beyond "checkbox compliance" to build sustainable security cultures. We explore how to align technical controls with business objectives.
The Governance Triad
Security
Technical controls and defense mechanisms protecting assets.
Compliance
Adherence to external regulations and internal policies.
Risk
Identification and mitigation of potential business impacts.
Core Frameworks
SOC 2 Type II
The gold standard for SaaS providers. Focuses on Security, Availability, Processing Integrity, Confidentiality, and Privacy.
ISO 27001
International standard for Information Security Management Systems (ISMS). Requires a systematic approach to managing sensitive company information.
GDPR / CCPA
Data privacy regulations that mandate strict controls over how personal data is collected, stored, and processed.
Governance Strategy
