🔒🛡️ NIST has dropped the initial draft of the NIST Special Publication (SP) 800-61 Rev. 3, which aims to weave cybersecurity incident response tightly into the fabric of risk management, guided by the NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) 2.0. This draft isn't just about responding to incidents; it's about a holistic approach to reduce, detect, and recover from them more effectively. NIST is nudging organizations towards a cycle that includes Detect, Respond, and Recover, built on a foundation of solid preparation. This approach signifies a shift towards continuous improvement and adaptability in the face of evolving cyber threats. 🔄 The revamped incident response life cycle underscores the importance of governance, identification, and protection as pillars for a robust response strategy. It's not just about the "when" and "how" of response but the "before" – preparing meticulously to mitigate risks and impacts. This move to Revision 3 represents a significant leap from previous versions by focusing on the ever-changing and organization-specific nature of cyber threats. It’s an invitation to organizations to dive deeper into continuous improvement across all cybersecurity dimensions, supported by the NIST CSF 2.0 framework. For organizations, this publication could be the roadmap to not just surviving but thriving in the digital arena, where cyber threats loom large but can be navigated with the right strategies. 📚 The draft is waiting for review.

Welcome to part TWO of our three-part NIST InfoSeries with Christopher Hills. In this short video, Chris highlights the six core tenets of NIST CSF 2.0, and why each of them is a crucial part of the cybersecurity framework. ✔️ Govern: the newly added function, Govern, allows you to align your cybersecurity efforts with your overall goals and risk management approach – providing a holistic cybersecurity strategy for your organization. ✔️ Identify: Identify enhances your organization's cybersecurity posture by thoroughly assessing your assets, systems, data, and supply chain dependencies. ✔️ Protect: Protect implements robust safeguards for access control, data security, and technology infrastructure hardening, enabling you to gain unparalleled protection for your critical assets. ✔️ Detect: Enable timely discovery of cybersecurity incidents by implementing processes to identify and analyze potential attacks or compromises. ✔️ Respond: When an incident is detected, Respond guides your team with the appropriate actions to contain the impact. This includes incident response planning, mitigation, reporting, and effective communication. ✔️ Recover: After an incident, the Recover function helps restore normal operations and services for your organization. Swiftly bring affected assets and systems back online while communicating during the recovery process. Follow along for part three of the series when we'll be sharing three easy ways you can get started on meeting the NIST CSF 2.0 requirements. Until then, you can learn more in this recent blog post. https://lnkd.in/e4s87VUG #NIST #NIST2 #NISTFramework #Cybersecurity #Compliance #BeyondTrustInfoSeries #Governance
