## NIST CSF 2.0: Manage and mitigate IT infrastructure risk

The NIST Cybersecurity Framework (NIST CSF) 2.0 helps organizations understand risk and improve their cybersecurity programs. Created by the US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), NIST CSF 2.0 provides a flexible framework that any organization can use to create and maintain a robust information security program. NIST CSF 2.0 compliance is required for organizations that work with the US federal government, institutions supported by federal grants, and/or within the supply chain for a federal agency.

### NIST CSF 2.0 compliance divides all cybersecurity activities into six categories:

1. **Govern:** Are the organization’s cybersecurity risk management strategy, expectations, and policy established, communicated, and monitored?
2. **Identity:** Are the organization’s current cybersecurity risks regarding assets and suppliers understood?
3. **Protect:** Are safeguards to manage the organization’s cybersecurity risks in place?
4. **Detect:** How are possible cybersecurity attacks and compromises found and analyzed?
5. **Respond:** How does the organization respond to detected cybersecurity incidents?
6. **Recover:** How are assets and operations affected by a cybersecurity incident restored?
