In an age when data breaches are occurring increasingly frequently, it’s critical that chief information security officers and other IT admins don’t disregard the risk employees’ at-home activities can pose to their business security posture.

The final part of NIST’s Cybersecurity Framework is the Recover function. 

Today, we’re closely examining the Respond function, which includes the processes CISOs and their teams should follow after threat detection.

Today, we’ll take a closer look at Detect, the third function in the framework, as well as what responsibilities CISOs have according to this step in the NIST Cybersecurity Framework.

Within this series, we’ll take a closer look at each of the functions of the NIST framework and provide tips and optimal processes for CISOs to follow as they implement and improve their cybersecurity using this roadmap.
