by Fola


Posted on Friday, 12th jan 2024



Every organization, no matter its size, structure or sector has a governing body saying what security rules must be followed. These laws, regulations, standards and frameworks provide oversight and direction for security programs. They supply a process for securing an organization's infrastructure. Many also have very specific rules or controls that must be followed.

This post helps you identify these common security regulations and frameworks that you will see as a cybersecurity professional.

Security Frameworks
