This course will teach you about the NIST CSF. The controls at the core provide a set of best practices, and the tiers allow you to set the level you intend to implement the controls. This all adds up to a profile detailing how secure you can be.

All organizations, big and small, need to secure themselves, but it is a task that is easier said than done. In this course, Security Framework: NIST CSF, you’ll learn the basics of the framework and how to apply it to your business. First, you’ll explore the core controls.

Finally, you’ll learn how the controls you selected to implement, to what tier you implemented them, makes up the profile of your organization. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge of the NIST CSF needed to implement a security program at your organization.
