The benefits that an organization can gain from the NIST Cybersecurity Framework can either be expansive, or minimal, depending on the state that the organization was in before the introduction of this Framework. This is actually illustrated in the framework itself, as it prompts the organization to rank themselves within the frameworks ranking system, to deduct where the company currently is, and where it wants to be in the future in terms of cybersecurity. One of the universal benefits for any of the organizations using this framework would be an analysis of where they are standing now, and to be able to see what improvements they could apply to their structure. They can also use a schedule that has clear and concise points that are given from the NIST Cybersecurity Framework. I would use it at my future workplace as a point of reference, as it is mainly intended to be. It would also be shared around the workplace that I would be working in, so then all of the personnel working there would know what the overall goal is. I believe that when all of the personnel in a workplace know what the goal is, it helps the goal become achieved much faster than if only the managers and people in higher positions know. I believe that many organizations need to instigate the NIST Cybersecurity Framework, because the industry world is not in a good place cybersecurity-wise. I believe that if all businesses began using and enforcing this framework it would make a huge difference overall across the world.
For anyone who would like to read the NIST Cybersecurity Framework and use it in their own model, here is a link to their document:
