A First Discussion of the NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0
Ten years after the launch of the seminal Cybersecurity Framework (CSF), the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) released the long-awaited Version 2.0 the morning of February 26.
Hours later, NIST leaders joined us to discuss the new CSF, as well as a suite of new supplementary resources accompanying it: online tools, implementation examples, and quick start guides to help organizations reduce their cybersecurity risks. We were honored to hear from Under Secretary of Commerce for Standards and Technology and NIST Director Laurie E. Locascio as well as Cherilyn Pascoeand Adam Sedgewick, the CSF Program Leads on versions 1 and 2. They shared why organizations need to supercharge their cybersecurity efforts and how CSF 2.0 can take cybersecurity risk management to the next level within the larger context of enterprise risk management.
Finally, we hosted a panel of industry experts on how the CSF has changed the way we assess, implement, and even talk about cybersecurity — and get their take on this new version.
