CISM: Strategy and Governance is the first course of Exam Prep CISM: Certified Information Security Manager Specialization. This course equips learners with the essential skills to establish a robust information security governance framework and align security strategy with organizational goals. Learners will explore the foundational roles and responsibilities required to sustain a security culture, dive into the development of a comprehensive security strategy, and learn how to obtain crucial senior management commitment through business cases and feasibility studies.
The course is divided into two modules, and each module is further segmented by Lessons and Video Lectures.

- Module 2: Strategy Alignment and Compliance
This course is specifically designed for security leads and management-track professionals who aim to bridge the gap between technical security controls and enterprise-wide AI governance, ensuring that innovation aligns with the organization's risk appetite and strategic objectives.
By the end of this course, a learner will be able to:
