Summary:

Learn to enhance your organization's cybersecurit y through the NIST Cybersecurit y Framework in this invaluable and accessible guide The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Cybersecurity Framework, produced in response to a 2014 US Presidential directive, has proven essential in standardizing approaches to cybersecurity risk and producing an efficient, adaptable toolkit for meeting cyber threats. As these threats have multiplied and escalated in recent years, this framework has evolved to meet new needs and reflect new best practices, and now has an international footprint. There has never been a greater need for cybersecurity professionals to understand this framework, its applications, and its potential. A Comprehensive Guide to the NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 offers a vital introduction to this NIST framework and its implementation. Highlighting significant updates from the first version of the NIST framework, it works through each of the framework's functions in turn, in language both beginners and experienced professionals can grasp. Replete with compliance and implementation strategies, it proves indispensable for the next generation of cybersecurity professionals. A Comprehensive Guide to the NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 readers will also find: Clear, jargon-free language for both beginning and advanced readers Detailed discussion of all NIST framework components, including Govern, Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond, and Recover Hundreds of actionable recommendations for immediate implementation by cybersecurity professionals at all levels A Comprehensive Guide to the NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 is ideal for cybersecurity professionals, business leaders and executives, IT consultants and advisors, and students and academics focused on the study of cybersecurity, information technology, or related fields.
