SharePoint security governance is based around ensuring the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information and services, while also ensuring that operational activities comply with relevant compliance requirements.

Metrics are used to measure things. The problem they attempt to address is that of aligning organizational behavior with business goals. Good metrics provide visibility into performance, allowing for better informed decision-making, and can be used for forecasting and planning for future readiness and preparedness.

The broadest, most powerful tier is that of Farm-level Administrators. This type of account provides control over the entire SharePoint farm.
