Choosing the right compliance framework is crucial for organizations looking to establish robust security programs. NIST and ISO 27001 are two of the most widely adopted frameworks, each with distinct advantages.
NIST Cybersecurity Framework
The NIST framework provides a flexible approach to cybersecurity risk management, with its five core functions: Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond, and Recover.
ISO 27001 Standards
ISO 27001 offers a more prescriptive approach with specific controls and requirements for information security management systems.
