Description: Information Risk Management is the process of identifying, assessing, and mitigating risks to information, ensuring the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data. This process is fundamental in a digital environment where threats to information are becoming increasingly sophisticated and varied. Risk management involves a systematic approach that encompasses everything from identifying information assets and assessing vulnerabilities to implementing controls and mitigation measures. Key categories include information system security, which protects execution environments; cloud security, which addresses risks associated with storing and processing data on external platforms; and data loss prevention, which seeks to prevent the leakage or loss of critical information. Additionally, cloud security posture management focuses on maintaining constant oversight of security configurations and policies in cloud environments. Data governance and cloud compliance are essential to ensure organizations meet regulations and standards, while cybersecurity deals with protecting systems and networks from malicious attacks. Finally, security regulations establish the standards and best practices that must be followed to ensure proper information risk management.
