The identify phase in the NIST framework: assesses risks, identifies critical assets, and establishes risk management strategies, forming the foundation for effective cybersecurity practices.
DETECT.
The detect phase in the NIST framework focuses on continuous monitoring and proactive threat detection. It includes implementing systems to identify and analyze potential cybersecurity incidents, allowing for timely response and mitigation measures.
RECOVER.
The recover phase in the NIST framework aims to restore operations and minimize the impact of cybersecurity incidents. It involves developing and implementing recovery plans, restoring systems, and analyzing lessons learned to enhance resilience.
RESPOND.
The respond phase in the NIST framework emphasizes timely actions during a cybersecurity incident. It includes executing response plans, containing and mitigating the incident, and coordinating communication to minimize damages and facilitate recovery.
Identify your risk areas within your vendors
Identifying risk areas within your vendors is crucial for effective risk management. It involves assessing their security practices, evaluating data handling processes, and reviewing contractual agreements to ensure adequate protection of sensitive information and mitigate potential vulnerabilities in the supply chain.
Responding to risks in the IT security of vendors requires a proactive approach. It involves establishing incident response protocols, conducting regular security assessments, monitoring vendor activities, and implementing measures to mitigate risks promptly. Collaboration and communication with vendors are key to effective risk response and resolution.
Developing an IT strategy to enhance IT security within vendors is essential. It includes setting clear security objectives, conducting risk assessments, implementing robust security controls, ensuring regular audits and compliance checks, promoting security awareness, and fostering a culture of continuous improvement to safeguard critical data and systems.
Making an IT certification platform for the banks in Denmark
In collaboration with FSOR and LinkGRC we have made an IT certification platform that help the banks in Denmark to track the IT security level of their subcontactors.
