Description: Operational security is a risk management process that protects sensitive information. It focuses on identifying, assessing, and mitigating risks that may compromise the integrity, confidentiality, and availability of data. This approach is essential in an increasingly complex digital environment, where cyber threats are constant and rapidly evolving. Operational security encompasses not only the implementation of security technologies but also the creation of policies and procedures that guide organizations in protecting their most valuable assets. It includes practices such as identity and access management, data loss prevention, and incident response orchestration. Adopting a ‘Zero Trust’ model implies that no entity, whether internal or external, is trusted by default, requiring continuous verification of identity and access. In this context, operational security becomes a critical component for ensuring organizational resilience and protecting information in an interconnected digital world.
