NIST Risk Management Framework (RMF)

₹500.00

A process for integrating security and risk management activities into the system development life cycle. It outlines steps for categorizing information systems, selecting and implementing security controls, assessing system security, and monitoring security posture.

Topics to be Covered

Introduction to NIST Risk Management Framework (RMF):
Understanding the purpose and importance of the RMF.
Overview of the framework’s structure and components.

Key Concepts of Risk Management:
Defining risk, threats, vulnerabilities, and controls.
Understanding the risk management lifecycle.

RMF Roles and Responsibilities:
Identifying roles such as the system owner, risk executive, and authorizing official.
Understanding the responsibilities of each role in the RMF process.

RMF Steps and Process Overview:
Familiarizing yourself with the six steps of the RMF: Categorize, Select, Implement, Assess, Authorize, and Monitor.
Understanding the iterative nature of the RMF.

Step 1: Categorize:
Categorizing the information system based on its impact and risk level.
Identifying the system’s security requirements.

Step 2: Select:
Selecting and tailoring security controls from NIST Special Publication 800-53.
Identifying control baselines and tailoring considerations.

Step 3: Implement:
Implementing selected security controls within the information system.
Documenting control implementation and deployment.

Step 4: Assess:
Conducting security assessments to determine control effectiveness.
Identifying vulnerabilities and weaknesses in the system.

Step 5: Authorize:
Preparing and submitting the security authorization package.
Reviewing assessment results and making authorization decisions.

Step 6: Monitor:
Continuously monitoring the security posture of the system.
Conducting periodic assessments and addressing changes in risk.
