Discussion Board: The NIST Cybersecurity Framework
Organizations can gain many different benefits through the NIST Cybersecurity Framework. The framework allows the companies to facilitate better communication about cybersecurity risks and strategies themselves. This framework also provides a more common language for the cybersecurity analysts to talk about their jobs and tasks within their companies. The NIST improves the ability to respond quickly and effectively to cybersecurity incident, which are bigger and more common than ever. Having such a vast framework to work within helps these companies identify and manage big risks that could hurt their clients, and even the businesses themselves. Networking within the framework provides a culture of cybersecurity awareness among employees. In short, the NIST Cybersecurity Framework is a useful tool for risk management, effective communication, and ongoing cybersecurity practice improvement going forward to help companies that are under attack.
