The NIST Standard is a framework design for risk tolerance to business and other institutions. Understanding the NIST framework an organization can make informed decisions as to what is the necessary steps to protect a business IT with cybersecurity solutions. Understanding the risk of infrastructure is important to choosing the proper solutions to protect the business organization. The implementation of risk management offers organizations the ability to quantify and choose which solutions and services are best to provide a proactive security program.
Each business organization can choose different ways in which risk is managed. The management of risk may come in the form of avoidance, mitigation, transfer or accepting the risk depending on the potential impact to the delivery of critical services. It is the NIST Framework processes that help to enable organizations to inform and prioritize decisions regarding cybersecurity. By using the NIST Framework a business organization can choose where best to put proactive resources to ensure desired outcomes.
