An Introduction to the NIST Cyber Security Framework and its relevance to best practice

When:  Apr 13, 2021 from 17:30 to 19:00 (ET)
Associated with  Melbourne Chapter
The NIST Cyber Security Framework integrates
industry standards and best practices to help
organisations manage their cybersecurity risks.

It provides a common language that allows staff at all
levels within an organization—and at all points in a
supply chain—to develop a shared understanding of cybersecurity risks. NIST worked with private sector and government experts to create the Framework, which was released in early 2014.

This presentation introduces the NIST Cyber Security
Framework (CSF) and how it is being pragmatically
applied within the industry. It looks at the concepts that are covered by the NIST CSF, how these relate to existing frameworks, including Service Management and Service Integration and Management (SIAM).

The presentation will include training and accreditation topics as well as where to go for further information.
