The NIST Cybersecurity Framework provides a basic and understandable language of five key Functions– Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond, Recover – for managing risk iteratively over time.
PROTECT
Develop and implement the appropriate safeguards to ensure delivery of services
DETECT
Develop and implement the appropriate activities to identify the occurrence of a cybersecurity event.
RESPOND
Develop and implement the appropriate activities to take action regarding a detected cybersecurity event.
RECOVER
Develop and implement the appropriate activities to maintain plans for resilience and to restore any capabilities or services that were impaired due to a cybersecurity event.
