Governance committees (often called security or cybersecurity steering committees) exist to set the information-security strategy, approve or endorse policies, and provide ongoing oversight and guidance to ensure the program aligns with business objectives and risk appetite. They do not perform hands-on technical work such as configuring devices, staffing the SOC, or running vulnerability scans; those tasks belong to operational teams.
