Explanation

Quality management programs - such as those based on ISO 9001 - are built around structured processes for verification, validation, and assurance that defined requirements are consistently met. Applied to security, this means independently verifying that security controls and requirements are actually being fulfilled. Documenting incidents, guiding strategy, and implementing configuration controls are security management functions, not quality management's primary contribution.
