Question
The NIST Cybersecurity Framework provides a structured approach to managing cybersecurity risks. It helps businesses identify potential vulnerabilities, protect their systems, detect anomalies, respond to incidents, and recover from them. Practical applications include categorizing performance based on the six pillars of NIST, which can be tracked over time to ensure compliance. This proactive approach helps prevent business interruptions by detecting anomalies promptly before they lead to graver consequences. Furthermore, by protecting critical data and systems, it mitigates potential financial losses due to breaches.
This question was asked on:
One way to organize this information is by categorizing performance based on the six pillars of NIST. for example, this dashboard shows the "Identify" and "Protect" pillars and breaks down each subtask into "performed", "incompletely performed", and "not performed". Alternatively, a dashboard of gauge charts can track NIST compliance areas over time. On a more granular level and for team members with more technical roles, uptime/downtime monitoring allows any anomalies to be detected promptly before they lead to graver consequences.
