In this modern-day and age, cyber risks are a virtual but real danger to many larger companies, businesses, government agencies, and non-profit organizations. However, with the help of the Cybersecurity Enhancement Act of 2014 (CEA), the NIST was able to update and develop a newer cybersecurity support system that not only strengthens but secures the infrastructure of organizations, hence the NIST Cybersecurity Framework was developed.
With the cybersecurity framework being the vastly superior and unbiased cybersecurity system, it is readily available for any infrastructure and organization, allowing for both private and public-owned operations. The CYSE framework is designed in various ways to cater to the demands of the different security risks that each organization may potentially undergo. Since the framework is neutral, it remains adaptive to the evolution of technology, making the CYSE framework a more long-term option when implementing security measures.
As the CYSE framework is constantly ever-changing, this reinforces up-to-date global standards, guidelines, and practices concerning technology. Allowing the overall effectiveness of the global economy in terms of products, services, and practices, essentially sufficing the needs and demands in our economy.
Security threats are becoming more and more prevalent from an economic and global standpoint. With the CYSE frameworkâs accessibility and reliability, this precautionary security measure is what could help prevent large infrastructures from being exposed to growing cybercrime threats around the world.
