Exam CISM topic 1 question 418 discussion

Integrating the various assurance functions of an organization is important primarily to enable consistent security because it ensures that all aspects of security, such as risk management, incident response, and compliance, are working together in a cohesive manner. This helps to protect the organization from potential security threats and vulnerabilities by providing a unified and comprehensive approach to security. Additionally, it helps to ensure that all employees and departments within the organization are aware of and adhere to the same security standards and procedures, which helps to further enhance the overall security of the organization.
