Security and Audit - Improve The Relatioship

Document everything. List your measures to reduce risk, and decisions to accept risk, when flexibility or potential benefits dictate it.

Good controls should be part of the process, not after thought insertions. They address compliance requirements and enhance security. Monitor through metrics.

Design and implement best practices that fit your infrastructure; then, track through measurable performance metrics.

Be prepared to prove your assessment of the effectiveness of controls framework and mitigating factors.
