NIST Version 1.1. The NIST Cybersecurity Framework organizes its "core" material into five "functions" which are subdivided into a total of 23 "categories". For each category, it defines a number of subcategories of cybersecurity outcomes and security controls, with 108 subcategories in all.
The authors of Falcon provide a reference implementation in C as required by the NIST and one in Python for simplicity. The set of parameters suggested by Falcon imply a signature size of 666 bytes and a public key size of 897 bytes for the NIST security level 1 (security comparable to breaking AES-128 bits). The key generation can be performed ...
Information security standards (also cyber security standards [1]) are techniques generally outlined in published materials that attempt to protect a user's or organization's cyber environment. [2] This environment includes users themselves, networks, devices, all software, processes, information in storage or transit, applications, services ...
The Risk Management Framework (RMF) is a United States federal government guideline, standard, and process for managing risk to help secure information systems (computers and networks). The RMF was developed by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), and provides a structured process that integrates information security ...
Although it is not a standard, the NIST Cybersecurity Framework (NIST CSF) provides a high-level taxonomy of cybersecurity outcomes and a methodology to assess and manage those outcomes. It is intended to help private sector organizations that provide critical infrastructure with guidance on how to protect it.
The Gordon-Loeb model provides a framework for determining how much to invest in cybersecurity, using a cost-benefit approach. The model includes the following key components: Organizational data vulnerable to cyber-attacks, with vulnerability denoted by v ( 0 ≤ v ≤ 1 ), representing the probability of a breach occurring under current ...
In addition to covering information security-related standards such as COBIT 5 for Information Security, The CIS Critical Security Controls for Effective Cyber Defense, the 2016 standard covers ISO/IEC 27002 as well as PCI DSS 3.1 and the NIST Cybersecurity Framework.
Cybersecurity engineering is a tech discipline focused on the protection of systems, networks, and data from unauthorized access, cyberattacks, and other malicious activities. It applies engineering principles to the design, implementation, maintenance, and evaluation of secure systems, ensuring the integrity, confidentiality, and availability ...
