Information security is a foundational practice in ITIL, ensuring that confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information are protected at all times. In this episode, we’ll explain how the information security management practice establishes policies, roles, and controls that safeguard services against threats. It’s not just about technical defenses like firewalls and encryption, but also about governance, risk management, and culture. The exam may ask you to identify the purpose of this practice or connect it to broader service management goals. Understanding security in ITIL means recognizing it as a business enabler, not just a technical function.
We’ll also connect this practice to real-world challenges such as protecting customer data, preventing service disruptions, and complying with regulations. Security failures can undermine trust and negate value, making this practice critical in every industry. By mastering the concepts here, you’ll gain not only exam readiness but also practical awareness of how security shapes service delivery. This episode was produced by BareMetalCyber.com.
