What is NIST CSF v2.0?

The NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) v2.0 provides a comprehensive, flexible structure for managing cybersecurity risk. Updated in 2024, it applies to organizations of any size and sector, offering a common language for understanding, managing, and reducing cybersecurity risk.

106 Subcategories

Comprehensive coverage across 6 core functions, providing granular assessment of your cybersecurity posture from governance through recovery.

5-Point Maturity Scale

Rate each subcategory from Initial (ad hoc) through Optimized (continuously improved), giving you a clear picture of where you stand and where to improve.

Universal Framework

Applicable to any organization regardless of size, sector, or cybersecurity sophistication. The most widely adopted cybersecurity framework worldwide.

6 Core Functions

The NIST CSF v2.0 organizes cybersecurity activities into 6 core functions, each addressing a critical aspect of a comprehensive cybersecurity program.

GV

Govern

Establishes and monitors the organization's cybersecurity risk management strategy, expectations, and policy. Sets the tone and direction for all other functions.

31 Subcategories
ID

Identify

Understanding the organization's current cybersecurity risks. Identifies assets, business environment, risk assessment, and supply chain risk management.

21 Subcategories
PR

Protect

Safeguards to manage the organization's cybersecurity risks. Covers identity management, access control, awareness, data security, and platform security.

22 Subcategories
DE

Detect

Finding and analyzing possible cybersecurity attacks and compromises. Continuous monitoring, adverse event analysis, and detection process management.

11 Subcategories
RS

Respond

Taking action regarding a detected cybersecurity incident. Incident management, analysis, reporting, mitigation, and communication activities.

13 Subcategories
RC

Recover

Restoring assets and operations affected by a cybersecurity incident. Recovery planning, execution, and communication to resume normal operations.

8 Subcategories

5-Point Maturity Scale

Each subcategory is rated on a 5-point maturity scale, providing a clear measurement of your organization's cybersecurity capabilities and a roadmap for improvement.

1

Initial

Ad hoc and reactive. Cybersecurity activities are not formalized. No documentation, inconsistent processes, and reliance on individual heroics.

2

Developing

Partially implemented with beginning documentation. Some processes are repeatable but may not be consistent across the organization.

3

Defined

Formally documented and standardized. Policies and procedures are established, communicated, and consistently followed across the organization.

4

Managed

Measured, monitored, and evidence-based. Quantitative metrics are used to manage and control processes. Performance is tracked and reported.

5

Optimized

Continuously improved and data-driven. Processes are regularly refined based on lessons learned, emerging threats, and industry best practices.
