Cybersecurity ≠ Regulatory Cyber Compliance

Cybersecurity and regulatory cyber compliance are different and complementary. Cybersecurity is the art and practice of protecting systems and ensuring confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information. Regulatory cyber compliance refers to meeting the assessment objectives of specific cyber frameworks or standards. The call to action here for the DIB ecosystem, especially OSCs, is to understand the difference and similarities of both concepts and to account for both concepts in their organizations based on their business needs.

Remember:

  • Regulatory cyber compliance lags cybersecurity.

  • Different and complementary skillsets are required for cybersecurity and cyber compliance.

Have a cyber safe 2022!
