Cybersecurity Governance: 16 Steps with NIST & ISO
About this course
Unify your cybersecurity governance standards into a resilient, audit-ready governance program. In today's complex risk environment, even a single supply chain breach can lead to severe regulatory penalties and reputational harm. This course provides a repeatable, risk-based approach to cybersecurity governance, risk and compliance (GRC), integrating ISO 27001, ISO 27002, ISO 27701, and the NIST cybersecurity framework, ideal for compliance leaders preparing for certification or strengthening their information security posture. Through a structured 16-step blueprint and hands-on demonstrations, you'll learn to scope your ISMS, conduct risk assessments, map controls, and align cloud and privacy safeguards that are considered the core cybersecurity governance skills. You'll apply ISO and NIST standards to real-world scenarios, using templates, checklists, and workflows to streamline documentation, cybersecurity auditing, and incident response. By course end, you'll be equipped to build and maintain a cybersecurity governance, risk and compliance framework that meets global cybersecurity best practices and scales with organizational risk.
