Within the context of information security, which term is used to describe enforceable directives issued by a government entity that organizations are legally bound to follow?
Regulations
Mandates
Guidelines
Frameworks
Protocols
The correct answer is 'Regulations'. Regulations are specific, enforceable requirements laid down by governmental authorities, and organizations must adhere to them to ensure compliance within various domains, including data protection and privacy. 'Guidelines' offer advice or suggestions but are not legally enforceable. 'Frameworks' provide a structured approach to addressing complex issues but also lack the force of law. 'Protocols' generally refer to technical agreements for data exchange and communications in IT systems. Finally, while 'Mandates' require action, the term is broad and may not necessarily pertain to legally enforceable directives like regulations do.
