Security posture: An organization’s overall defense capability against cyber threats is defined by the effectiveness of its security policies, controls, and practices. It’s a comprehensive view of the organization’s readiness and ability to protect its information assets from potential security incidents. A strong security posture incorporates elements such as threat intelligence, proactive risk management, effective incident response, user awareness, and continual reassessment to adapt to the evolving threat landscape.
