The NIST Cybersecurity Framework is a voluntary, risk-based framework developed by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to help organizations manage and reduce cybersecurity risks. It provides a common vocabulary and set of cybersecurity activities that can be tailored to fit the specific needs of any organization. The framework is organized into five core functions: Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond, and Recover. By following the framework, organizations can improve their cybersecurity posture, reduce their risk of cyberattacks, and protect their critical assets.
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) is a voluntary, risk-based framework that helps organizations identify, assess, and manage cybersecurity risks. It consists of five core functions
This function involves identifying the organization's assets, critical infrastructure, and dependencies; understanding the business environment and risk tolerance; and developing a risk assessment process.
This function focuses on implementing security controls to protect the organization's assets. It includes activities such as access control, network security, and data security.
This function involves implementing monitoring and detection mechanisms to identify potential cyber threats and vulnerabilities. It includes activities such as intrusion detection, anomaly detection, and continuous monitoring.
This function focuses on responding to cyber incidents in a timely and effective manner. It includes activities such as incident response planning, containment, eradication, and recovery.
This function involves restoring the organization's operations and capabilities after a cyber incident. It includes activities such as disaster recovery planning, backup and recovery, and business continuity planning.
