Podcast - Defensible Governance: Protecting your company and its leaders

Why is it that companies with mature security and compliance organizations, who use the typical industry standards, frameworks, and risk management practices, and have all the vendor tools available -- are still getting hit with massive regulatory fines, and ongoing class action lawsuits?

> Because there is a misalignment between corporate efforts and legal expectations.

A legally defensible approach entails:

• Alignment with Legal Expectations: While traditional risk management often focuses on general industry standards and best practices, Defensible Governance aligns risk analysis with the specific legal standards used by regulators and courts.
• This includes incorporating legal concepts like "due care," "reasonable person," and "reasonable and appropriate safeguards" directly into the risk assessment process.

This podcast discusses a forward-thinking approach and tools to implement it.
