Legal and regulatory requirements are the most important constraint to be considered when developing an information security strategy, as they define the minimum level of security that the organization must comply with to avoid legal sanctions, fines, or reputational damage. Legal and regulatory requirements may vary depending on the jurisdiction, industry, and type of data that the organization handles, and they may impose specific security controls, standards, or frameworks that the organization must follow.
