Description

The NIST Cybersecurity Framework isn't just another dusty document. It's a practical tool that can help protect your organization. But many people tell me they're confused about how to actually use it.We've been implementing the Framework with paying customers for over 8 years, so I've seen lots of confusion.In this course, I'm going to demystify the Framework, show you how to implement it, and give you a straight-forward method along with a free tool for automating the workflow and reporting.You'll start by learning the basics of the NIST Cybersecurity Framework, like who made it and who can use it.Then, you'll dive deeper into the framework to fully understand the Framework Core, the Framework Tiers, and the Implementation Profiles.You'll also review case studies from diverse organizations across the globe, including a critical infrastructure organization, a large global business, and others.Finally, we'll spend most of our time learning how to implement the framework within your own organization by making a Cyber Risk Management Action Plan (CR-MAP). This CR-MAP of your organization will discover your time five cyber risks and help you to create a mitigation plan to reduce your cyber risk and make your organization more cyber resilient. You'll also get a free bonus digital workbook that helps you conduct a CR-MAP step-by-step.Remember: Cyber criminals don't care how big or small your organization is. They only care if you're an easy target.The Framework helps make you a harder target. Let's get going!
