NIST
Cyber Security Framework
NIST CSF – is the guidance from the National Institute of Standards and Technology for Cybersecurity. The guidance is design as a framework to help guide businesses toward a more secure computer infrastructure. We use this cyber security framework to design and implement a more secure environment for business cyber systems. |
What is the purpose of NIST CSF?
The purpose of NIST CSF is to provide a framework on Cyber Security for businesses and government in the USA to build their cyber security around.
We will list out the Cyber Security Guideline by category to help you better determine the missing areas where your company needs to improve in your security fabric.
Please review the categories of the Cyber Security Framework and let us know were you want to improve you cyber security.
Not technical or no full time IT in your company? Not a problem, we can have a security audit and penetration test performed on your company to help you determine the direction you wish to proceed in developing your Security Fabric.
Let us create a Shadow Canvas for your company to reduce the risks outlined in the NIST CSF and provide a security fabric that is affordable, yet improves your current cyber security state.
We can work with small SMB office to full scale Enterprise / Campus environments.
NIST Cyber Security Framework:
IDENTIFY
Identify — Develop the organizational understanding to manage cybersecurity risk to systems, assets, data, and capabilities.
PROTECT
Protect — Develop and implement the appropriate safeguards to ensure delivery of critical infrastructure services.
DETECT
Detect — Develop and implement the appropriate activities to identify the occurrence of a cybersecurity event.
Sub-Categories: Anomalies & Events, Security Continuous Monitoring, Detection Process.
Respond
Respond — Develop and implement the appropriate activities to take action regarding a detected cybersecurity event.
Sub-Categories: Response Planning, Communications, Analysis, Mitigation, Improvements.
RECOVER
Recover — Develop and implement the appropriate activities to take action regarding a detected cybersecurity event.
Sub-Categories: Response Planning, Improvements, Communications.
Things to consider
If your company is new at cyber security:
Cyber Security Insurance
Cyber liability insurance is important.
We have partners that can provide multiple quotes from different competitors. To get you the best price for the level of Cyber Insurance that you want for your business.
Pen Test – Penetration Testing
A penetration test, or pen test, is an attempt to evaluate the security of an IT infrastructure by safely trying to exploit vulnerabilities. These vulnerabilities may exist in operating systems, services and application flaws, improper configurations or risky end-user behavior. Such assessments are also useful in validating the efficacy of defensive mechanisms, as well as end-user adherence to security policies.
Penetration testing is typically performed using manual or automated technologies to systematically compromise servers, endpoints, web applications, wireless networks, network devices, mobile devices and other potential points of exposure. Once vulnerabilities have been successfully exploited on a particular system, testers may attempt to use the compromised system to launch subsequent exploits at other internal resources, specifically by trying to incrementally achieve higher levels of security clearance and deeper access to electronic assets and information via privilege escalation.
Information about any security vulnerabilities successfully exploited through penetration testing is typically aggregated and presented to IT and network system managers to help those professionals make strategic conclusions and prioritize related remediation efforts. The fundamental purpose of penetration testing is to measure the feasibility of systems or end-user compromise and evaluate any related consequences such incidents may have on the involved resources or operations.
Our little ninjas can infiltrate your cyber systems to see how vulnerable is your business. Then provide a report on what is wrong and suggestions to get the issues fixed.
End pOint Security
End Point security is the new name for computer antivirus, malware, application security for computers and some devices.
We have multiple options for managed end point security. That can be placed on devices in the office and remote to monitor and protect the devices from virus, crypto viruses, malware, hackers, and so forth.
Network firewall & Security Appliances
Smart devices that sit between your network and the internet designed to provide more robust protection for your network, servers, and data.
There are many different options and a large range of prices among the appliances out to today.
