Reviewing local and regional legislation where the company operates is essential to ensure the security policy complies with various legal requirements. Each jurisdiction may have unique cybersecurity laws, data protection regulations, and privacy mandates that must be followed. Consulting a legal expert ensures that the policy is drafted with a thorough understanding of these norms. Merely aligning with international standards or involving local employees without considering legal advice may not fully capture the nuances of the region’s laws. Neglecting the legal aspect could potentially lead to non-compliance issues.
