Description: Governance and risk management in the context of cloud security and the Zero Trust approach refers to the integration of governance principles with risk management practices to ensure that cloud resources are used securely and efficiently. Governance involves establishing policies, procedures, and controls that guide the use of cloud services, ensuring alignment with organizational objectives and compliance with applicable regulations. On the other hand, risk management focuses on identifying, assessing, and mitigating risks associated with cloud usage, including cyber threats, data loss, and service availability failures. The Zero Trust model, which is based on the premise that no entity, whether internal or external, should be trusted by default, complements these efforts by requiring rigorous authentication and authorization for every access to resources. Together, these approaches enable organizations not only to protect their cloud assets but also to foster a culture of accountability and compliance in handling information and systems. The relevance of this integration is increasingly critical in an environment where cyber threats are more sophisticated and regulations are stricter, forcing companies to adopt a proactive and holistic approach to security across all technology environments, not just in the cloud.
