Abstract

Sometimes security and technology professionals confuse their state of compliance with their security posture. While an organization can meet the requirements to any regulatory standard (HIPAA, SOC, etc.), doing so should not be construed as meeting the requirements to defend a potential cyberattack, provide data protection during business processing, or maintain a highly secure development environment. In this chapter, the authors discuss how security and compliance can co-exist. They associate each one of these with controls that are either derived from formal frameworks or meet custom operational or other requirements of an organization. They explore how each control needs to be implemented with a risk perspective in mind, and finally, they suggest methods on how to manage such a control catalog.
