Description
The subject of information risk management (IRM) is on the radar screens of many organizations. Industries, especially those comprising the national critical infrastructure must move to a more strategic, business-oriented and architectural cybersecurity approach and posture. The National Institute of Standards and Technology’s (NIST) Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) is one of three sections in the NIST IRM approach. The NIST CSF is voluntary guidance, consisting of standards, guidelines, and practices to promote the protection of critical infrastructure, while creating a common language for cybersecurity. While the NIST CSF provides guidance on how to approach your organization’s IRM goals, NIST’s SP 800-39 “Managing Information Security Risk” process provides detailed steps in how to actually implement the Cybersecurity Framework. It is estimated that ‘by 2020, more than 50% of organizations will use the NIST Cybersecurity Framework, up from the current 30% in 2015.’ How secure is your organization? Are you actively utilizing a cyber security framework? Join this webinar and leverage a key ingredient for a successful information / cyber risk management program. This webinar is designed for anyone responsible for protecting sensitive personal information. Business leaders, managers and professionals with responsibility for privacy, security, compliance or risk management should attend. CEOs, COOs, CFOs, Chief Compliance Officers, Chief Risk Officers, Chief Privacy Officers, Chief Security Officers, and Chief Information Officers should also attend given the increased scrutiny under which shareholders and other stakeholders are placing these executives.
