Governing by Assurance - Video Chapter Review Training

More than a book launch, these chapter-level video training sessions provide a structured exploration of the key concepts presented in the DVMS Institute  Governing By Assurance publication.

Why this book, and why now

  • The governance, risk, and compliance landscape has never been more sophisticated or more costly. Organizations have invested heavily in frameworks, tooling, and dedicated functions. Regulators have issued more guidance, demanded more evidence, and imposed more consequences for apparent failures. Yet the pattern of major incidents has not abated.
  • Something fundamental is not working, and it is not a shortage of controls.
  • This book argues that the primary problem is not insufficient governance but misaligned governance: a model designed to produce artifacts that demonstrate compliance with requirements, rather than to produce evidence that the system is actually capable of achieving the outcomes those requirements were written to protect.

That distinction matters more now than it did a decade ago for three reasons.

  • First, the complexity of digital operations has outpaced the governance models meant to manage them.
  • Second, accountability is rising. Regulatory frameworks across multiple continents now impose personal liability for failures in digital resilience
  • Third, solutions exist to close the gap.

Today, enterprises govern increasingly complex digital ecosystems through a patchwork of siloed frameworks and point-in-time assessments, leaving leaders without a single source of truth to make better decisions, enforce accountability, and sustain performance.

The DVMS Institute® accredited training courses solve this problem by teaching enterprises how to build a DVMS® NISTCSF Governance by Assurance Overlay System that:

  • Integrates existing fragmented governance frameworks into a unified system that provides a single source of verifiable truth for better decisions, stronger accountability, and sustained performance.
  • Establishes Governance at boundaries where digital risk accumulates
  • Enables Resilience by aligning leadership intent, organizational structure, and operational behavior to achieve verifiable outcomes.
  • Provides Continuous Assurance through audit-ready evidence that operational risks are identified, protected against, detected, responded to, and recovered from across the digital enterprise.
  • Ensures Accountability through transparent ownership boundaries, clearly defined decision rights, and trusted evidence of responsibility.
  • Empowers Leadership with a clear line of sight between operations, performance, and outcomes, transforming digital operations from a cost center into a driver of growth, innovation, and organizational value.
