A long-awaited update to the National Institute of Standards and Technology’s Cybersecurity Framework (NIST CSF) expands the guidance’s scope to address a wider range of cyber professionals working in sectors beyond critical infrastructure. The latest version, released on Monday, features expanded standards for improving organizational cyber posture and a new focus on best practices for internally governing security risks. The update to NIST’s voluntary framework, a compliance resource used by the private sector, is part of a broader federal push to bolster cybersecurity practices and regulations. NIST released its first CSF in 2014, at the direction of a presidential executive order to help organizations, specifically critical infrastructure, mitigate cybersecurity risk. CSF 2.0 builds on the existing five basic functions (Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond, and Recover) and has been updated to include a sixth, Govern. NIST's CSF 2.0 also addresses supply chain risks. #nist #nistcsf #cyberbreach #cyberattack #cybercrime #cybercriminals #hackers #networksecurity #networkforensics #threatintelligence #threatintel #darkweb #securityoperations #informationtechnology #ransomware #databreach Read more here: https://lnkd.in/gw755VUt

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) recently released Version 2.0 of its landmark Cybersecurity Framework (CSF), marking the first major update since the framework's inception in 2014. The updates center around improving the framework's core by including a new emphasis on governance, stressing the importance of informed decision-making at the highest levels of an organization. At SensCy, we recognize the critical role of governance in a small to mid-sized organization's cybersecurity program. That's why our clients convene for regular executive briefings to stay informed on their cybersecurity progress. I encourage all organizations to explore NIST's new Cybersecurity Framework and leverage its resources to enhance their cybersecurity posture.

🆕 NIST has released version 2.0 of landmark cybersecurity framework (CSF) - the first major update since establishment in 2014! We welcome the release of CSF 2.0, which now explicitly aims to help all organizations to manage and reduce risks, and no longer just those in critical infrastructure. To assist organizations with this, NIST has updated the core guidance and created a suite of resources to help achieve their cybersecurity goals, with added emphasis on governance and supply chains. The updated framework anticipates that organizations will approach the CSF with varying needs and degrees of experience implementing cybersecurity tools, and the resources are designed to provide different audiences with tailored pathways into the CSF and make the framework easier to put into action.

After several years of deliberation, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has released its Cybersecurity Framework 2.0. The new framework builds on its long-standing, cyber-risk-reducing recommendations to include the concerns of organizations outside of its initial focus on critical infrastructure. #NIST released its first CSF in 2014, at the direction of a presidential executive order to help organizations, specifically critical infrastructure, mitigate cybersecurity risk. The CSF 2.0 builds on the existing five basic functions (#Identify, #Protect, #Detect, #Respond, and #Recover) and has been updated to include a sixth, Govern. NIST's CSF 2.0 also addresses supply chain risks.
