Episode 179: Introduction to Security Governance (Domain 5)

Security governance is the blueprint for how an organization manages its security strategy, aligns it with business goals, and ensures accountability across all levels of operation. In this episode, we introduce the core elements of effective governance, including the development of security policies, acceptable use standards, change management procedures, and incident response planning. Governance defines who is responsible for making decisions, enforcing controls, and reviewing outcomes—often through boards, steering committees, and cross-functional teams. We also explain how governance connects to compliance, risk management, and business continuity, ensuring that security isn’t just reactive but is built into the fabric of organizational planning. Without governance, security becomes fragmented and reactive—governance turns it into a coordinated, strategic effort. It’s where leadership, oversight, and cybersecurity converge.
