About cybersecurity governance jobs

Cybersecurity governance connects security control frameworks to business and regulatory risk, covering policy, risk assessment, and control assurance rather than hands-on operations. Jobs like this one are typically evaluated against frameworks such as NIST CSF, ISO/IEC 27001, SOC 2, and security risk and control-assurance practices.

How to position yourself for this cybersecurity governance job

In your resume and outreach, tie your experience to how Defense Information Systems Agency would apply NIST CSF, ISO/IEC 27001, SOC 2, and security risk and control-assurance practices, and lead with concrete outcomes rather than duties.
