About the Event

Course Outline

The NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) 2.0 provides guidance to industry, government agencies, and other organisations to manage cybersecurity risks. Widely adopted and increasingly mandated, it offers a taxonomy of high-level cybersecurity outcomes that can be used by any organisation, regardless of its size, sector, or maturity, to better understand, assess, prioritise, and communicate its cybersecurity efforts.

The CSF does not prescribe how outcomes should be achieved. Rather, it links to resources that provide additional guidance on practices and controls that could be used to achieve those outcomes.

This 2-day, instructor led, NIST Cybersecurity Professional® (NCSP®) Foundation Certificate course covers several key modules designed to provide a comprehensive understanding of the NIST CSF 2.0, benefits of framework adoption and considerations for framework implementation.
