Security compliance refers to the practice of adhering to specific laws, regulations, standards, and internal policies designed to protect an organization's information and information systems. At its core, it's about ensuring that a company takes the necessary steps to safeguard sensitive data, maintain the integrity of its systems, and ensure the availability of information when needed. This field is crucial in today's digital landscape, where data breaches and cyber threats are increasingly common and can have significant financial and reputational consequences for organizations.
