Training on Cybersecurity and Information Governance: Legal Risk and ISO Records Compliance
Course Overview
Cybersecurity and information governance are now inseparable components of organizational resilience, regulatory compliance, and risk management. As data volumes grow and regulatory frameworks tighten, organizations must ensure that sensitive information is securely managed while remaining compliant with legal and international standards.
This course provides a comprehensive understanding of how to integrate cybersecurity practices with information governance and records management frameworks. Participants will learn how to protect information assets, manage legal and regulatory risk, and implement structured governance systems aligned with ISO standards.
The program covers key international standards, including ISO frameworks relevant to information security and records compliance, such as ISO 27001 for information security management and ISO 15489 for records management. Participants will explore how these standards guide the development of secure, auditable, and compliant information systems.
Key topics include cybersecurity governance, data classification, risk assessment, legal compliance requirements, records lifecycle management, audit readiness, and incident response planning. The course also emphasizes aligning cybersecurity controls with organizational policies and regulatory obligations.
Through real-world case studies across multiple industries, participants will gain practical insights into implementing integrated governance systems that reduce risk exposure, enhance compliance posture, and strengthen organizational trust and accountability.
