Business compliance refers to following applicable laws, regulations, and internal policies, while governance describes the systems and practices that guide decision-making, accountability, and risk management within the organization.
Key components include policy development, risk assessment, training, audits, incident response, and continuous improvement to build resilience and trust.

Implementing a complete program creates consistency, higher accountability, and stronger deterrence against noncompliance.
