NIST CSF 2.0: No CISO, No Excuse

NIST CSF 2.0: No CISO, No Excuse1 Sept23 min

The new NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 is out, and most teams still ask the same question: what do I do tomorrow? Lieuwe Jan Koning sits down with NIST's Amy Mahn and Daniel Elliott to turn the framework into a concrete next step. Governance is now its own function. Profiles tell you where you are and where you need to be. And the Quick Start Guides give a 15-page answer to a problem most people think needs 300 pages.

If you run security with limited resources, this episode shows you where to start and why the whole thing is free.
