Download or read book Cybersecurity Law Standards and Regulations 2nd Edition written by Tari Schreider and published by Rothstein Publishing. This book was released on 2020-02-22 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In today’s litigious business world, cyber-related matters could land you in court. As a computer security professional, you are protecting your data, but are you protecting your company? While you know industry standards and regulations, you may not be a legal expert. Fortunately, in a few hours of reading, rather than months of classroom study, Tari Schreider’s Cybersecurity Law, Standards and Regulations (2nd Edition), lets you integrate legal issues into your security program. Tari Schreider, a board-certified information security practitioner with a criminal justice administration background, has written a much-needed book that bridges the gap between cybersecurity programs and cybersecurity law. He says, “My nearly 40 years in the fields of cybersecurity, risk management, and disaster recovery have taught me some immutable truths. One of these truths is that failure to consider the law when developing a cybersecurity program results in a protective façade or false sense of security.” In a friendly style, offering real-world business examples from his own experience supported by a wealth of court cases, Schreider covers the range of practical information you will need as you explore – and prepare to apply – cybersecurity law. His practical, easy-to-understand explanations help you to: Understand your legal duty to act reasonably and responsibly to protect assets and information. Identify which cybersecurity laws have the potential to impact your cybersecurity program. Upgrade cybersecurity policies to comply with state, federal, and regulatory statutes. Communicate effectively about cybersecurity law with corporate legal department and counsel. Understand the implications of emerging legislation for your cybersecurity program. Know how to avoid losing a cybersecurity court case on procedure – and develop strategies to handle a dispute out of court. Develop an international view of cybersecurity and data privacy – and international legal frameworks. Schreider takes you beyond security standards and regulatory controls to ensure that your current or future cybersecurity program complies with all laws and legal jurisdictions. Hundreds of citations and references allow you to dig deeper as you explore specific topics relevant to your organization or your studies. This book needs to be required reading before your next discussion with your corporate legal department. This new edition responds to the rapid changes in the cybersecurity industry, threat landscape and providers. It addresses the increasing risk of zero-day attacks, growth of state-sponsored adversaries and consolidation of cybersecurity products and services in addition to the substantial updates of standards, source links and cybersecurity products.

This book was released on 2019-10-07 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ARE YOU IN CYBER-COMPLIANCE FOR THE DOD? UNDERSTAND THE PENDING CHANGES OF CYBERSECURITY MATURITY MODEL CERTIFICATION (CMMC).In 2019, the Department of Defense (DoD) announced the development of the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC). The CMMC is a framework not unlike NIST 800-171; it is in reality a duplicate effort to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) 800-171 with ONE significant difference. CMMC is nothing more than an evolution of NIST 800-171 with elements from NIST 800-53 and ISO 27001, respectively. The change is only the addition of third-party auditing by cybersecurity assessors. Even though the DOD describes NIST SP 800-171 as different from CMMC and that it will implement "multiple levels of cybersecurity," it is in fact a duplication of the NIST 800-171 framework (or other selected mainstream cybersecurity frameworks). Furthermore, in addition to assessing the maturity of a company's implementation of cybersecurity controls, the CMMC is also supposed to assess the company's maturity/institutionalization of cybersecurity practices and processes. The security controls and methodologies will be the same--the DOD still has no idea of this apparent duplication because of its own shortfalls in cybersecurity protection measures over the past few decades. (This is unfortunately a reflection of the lack of understanding by senior leadership throughout the federal government.) This manual describes the methods and means to "self-assess," using NIST 800-171. However, it will soon eliminate self-certification where the CMMC is planned to replace self-certification in 2020. NIST 800-171 includes 110 explicit security controls extracted from NIST's core cybersecurity document, NIST 800-53, Security and Privacy Controls for Federal Information Systems and Organizations. These are critical controls approved by the DOD and are considered vital to sensitive and CUI information protections. Further, this is a pared-down set of controls to meet that requirement based on over a several hundred potential controls offered from NIST 800-53 revision 4. This manual is intended to focus business owners, and their IT support staff to meet the minimum and more complete suggested answers to each of these 110 controls. The relevance and importance of NIST 800-171 remains vital to the cybersecurity protections of the entirety of DOD and the nation.

Download or read book DOD NIST 800 171 and 171A Compliance Guidebook 2nd Edition written by Mark A. Russo CISSP-ISSAP CISO and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2018-07-02 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: SOME MAJOR CHANGES TO NIST 800-171 ALL IN THIS BOOKIn June 2018, the NIST issued NIST 800-171A, "Assessing Security Requirements for Controlled Unclassified Information." It increased the challenges and some-what the complexities of current federal, and especially for the Department of Defense (DOD) efforts, to better secure the national cybersecurity environment. It added another 298 sub-controls (SUB CTRL) that may also be described as a Control Correlation Identifier (CCI). They provide a standard identifier and description for each of a singular and actionable statement that comprises a general cybersecurity control. These sub-controls provide added detail and granularity that bridge the gap between high-level policy expressions and low-level implementations. The ability to trace security requirements from their original "high-level" control to its low-level implementation allows organizations to demonstrate compliance. The impacts of this update are currently unknown and will likely be implemented at the direction of the federal agency and contract office whether these additional sub-controls are answered in part or in total as part of a company's self-assessment responses to this change to NIST 800-171.No matter how any federal agency interprets and executes NIST 800-171 with with 171AA contractually, the information in THIS book is a significant supplement to the NIST 800-171 evolution. The information provides the reader with the latest information to answer the control requirements with needed specificity to meet the goal of a compliant and secure NIST 800-171 Information Technology (IT) environment.

Book excerpt: NIST SP 800-115 September 2008 An information security assessment is the process of determining how effectively an entity being assessed (e.g., host, system, network, procedure, person-known as the assessment object) meets specific security objectives. Three types of assessment methods can be used to accomplish this-testing, examination, and interviewing. Testing is the process of exercising one or more assessment objects under specified conditions to compare actual and expected behaviors. Examination is the process of checking, inspecting, reviewing, observing, studying, or analyzing one or more assessment objects to facilitate understanding, achieve clarification, or obtain evidence. Interviewing is the process of conducting discussions with individuals or groups within an organization to facilitate understanding, achieve clarification, or identify the location of evidence. Assessment results are used to support the determination of security control effectiveness over time. Why buy a book you can download for free?

Download or read book NIST Cybersecurity Framework written by Wole Akpose and published by 6igma Associates. This book was released on 2016-06-21 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The NIST Cybersecurity Framework (NCF) is the new game in town. Referred to as the Rosetta stone of security, it offers a blueprint for creating and implementing a cybersecurity program that borrows from a collection of existing frameworks, standards, and industry best practices. The framework was created to offer organizations, particularly government agencies, guidance on the key elements of a cybersecurity program, and offer a roadmap for program maturity evaluation and compliance review. It is however still a complex matrix of options and it is not always clear how to proceed or implement. This document will offer some guidance from an implementer’s perspective. We take a closer look at the NIST Cybersecurity Framework, including all its elements and help the reader navigate through options for implementing the NCF. We present the security cube with the goal of better clarifying the relationship between various cybersecurity components. We also present the ADMI construct, a four-stage-process for implementing a cybersecurity program

This book was released on 2018-09-11 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: LACK OF CONTRACTOR SECURITY HAS GOTTEN US TO THIS POINT... In May 2017, a major federal contractor left unencrypted Department of Defense files on a public Amazon server; this resulted in over 60,000 sensitive files being exposed to the US's friends and enemies alike. NIST 800-171 is the government's first and most serious move to protect sensitive data and enforce its protection on all its supporting contractors across the nation and further across the global supply chain. This book is written to supplement NIST 800-171 Manufacturing Extension Partnership (MEP) and better define what it really means for corporate America. The author has extensive federal government experience working in cybersecurity over the past decade. His books on cybersecurity have been the current foundation of a "deeper dive" into the 110 security controls of NIST 800-171. If you need help maneuvering the coming "storm" of NIST 800-171, the "MEP Companion Handbook" is a must read...and a must used to protect sensitive national and corporate data.
