Putting Information Sharing into Context
Putting Information Sharing into Context
Information sharing occurs because it enhances decision-making, coordination, and outcomes for individuals, teams, and entire systems.
Public bodies and enterprises also share information to meet regulatory requirements, improve services, and manage compliance and budget more effectively.
In cybersecurity and safety domains, sharing threat or incident information enables collective defense, raising the cost for attackers and lowering overall systemic risk.
What do Regulations, Requirements, and Policy have in Common?
What do Regulations, Requirements, and Policy have in Common?
Requirements describe necessary functions, performance levels, constraints, and environmental conditions, forming the measurable basis for design, implementation, and verification.
Regulations set technical standards, processes, or obligations. Violations may lead to inspections, sanctions, or other enforcement actions within the agency’s jurisdiction. Requirements can arise from regulations, laws, contracts, internal policies, standards, or customer needs—not just from regulators.
Policies translate objectives, values, and external obligations (laws, regulations, standards) into internal requirements based on a set of rules.
Regulations and policies are defined as a set of requirements.
