Having a set of standards by which to measure your security organization, being able to compare your security posture to other organizations, and being able to justify your choices to investors and insurance firms are all worthwhile goals? It\u2019s beneficial to have widely agreed upon standards of care and measurement in cyber security, to help know where you stand, where there\u2019s room for improvement, and what\u2019s important to you.\nThat\u2019s where frameworks come in, and the NIST cybersecurity framework is one of the most popular in the cybersecurity industry. In this CyberWire special edition, we\u2019ll examine frameworks in general and the NIST cybersecurity framework specifically, to see if adopting them is worth the time, energy and expense it takes.\nJoining us are Rick Tracy, Chief Security Officer for Telos corporation, Rafal Los, Managing Director of the Solutions and Programs insight group at Optiv Security, and Matt Barrett, Program Manager for the Cyber Security Framework at NIST.
