A great new resource to help SMB's wrap their heads around key investments. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency does a good job of providing concise info that focus on basics. Optimum Cybersecurity can help you understand these materials and how best to apply them to your SMB.
BIG NEWS! We released the Cybersecurity Performance Goals (CPGs) at the direction of the White House and in coordination with the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and other agencies: CISA.gov/cpgs
The CPGs provide voluntary guidance to critical infrastructure partners to help them prioritize security investments toward areas that will have the greatest impact on their cybersecurity.
The CPGs are developed to be implemented in concert with the NIST Cybersecurity Framework. Every organization should use the NIST Cybersecurity Framework to develop a rigorous, comprehensive cybersecurity program. The CPGs prescribe an abridged subset of actions โ a kind of โQuickStart guideโ โ for the NIST CSF to help organizations prioritize their investments.
Following the release of the CPGs, CISA will continue taking input and welcomes feedback from partners from across the critical infrastructure community. In fact, CISA has already set up a Discussions page to receive feedback and ideas for new CPGs, plans to regularly update the CPGs, and will work directly with individual critical infrastructure sectors as we build out sector-specific CPGs in the coming months.
