Cyber Risk Management, also known as GRC (Governance, Risk & Compliance), focuses on aligning business strategy, risk management, and regulatory compliance into a unified framework, ensuring the organization operates securely, efficiently, and in line with required standards.
GRC provides a structured model for defining policies, managing risks, and enforcing controls across the organization, enabling better oversight, accountability, and decision-making.
