Description

In a world of privacy concerns, customers demand greater assurance for their personal data. How can your organization provide assurance while effectively managing requirement volume and complexity? The surge in cyber requirements necessitates the maturity of two key components: standardization of assurance work, and automation of control and requirements testing. This session empowers participants to establish techniques for building cohesive assurance services, continuous automated testing programs, and strong value narratives while satisfying increasingly complex requirements.
