About this course
Security compliance management is the collection of policies, procedures, and other internal controls that an enterprise leverages to meet its regulatory requirements for data privacy and protection. In this course, you will explore compliance monitoring topics like due diligence, attestation, and compliance automation, as well as internal and external compliance reporting. Then you investigate the consequences of non-compliance, including fines, sanctions, and reputational damage. Next, you will examine privacy considerations for keeping information involving people confidential. Finally, you will assess vendor assessment and selection techniques like supply chain analysis and rules of engagement, and you will discover various agreement types, such as non-disclosure agreements (NDAs), service-level agreements (SLAs), and statements of work (SOWs). This course is part of a series that prepares you for the CompTIA Security+ (SY0-701) exam.
