Episode 59 — Ensure Ongoing Policy Compliance Through Continuous Monitoring Practices
This episode explains how to ensure ongoing policy compliance through continuous monitoring practices, because ISSMP expects leaders to maintain security posture over time rather than assume compliance is permanent after a one-time review. You will learn how to translate policy requirements into monitorable controls, define evidence sources, and build routines that detect drift in configurations, access, logging, and data handling. Scenarios include detecting baseline deviations after updates, validating access reviews are actually completed, and confirming third-party obligations are being met, showing how monitoring supports governance and rapid correction. Best practices include risk-tiered monitoring depth, automated checks where possible, and clear remediation workflows tied to accountable owners.
