2. Risk Management: These standards provide guidance on how to identify, assess, and manage risks associated with the use of information systems.

3. System and Services Acquisition: These standards provide guidance on how to acquire and manage IT systems and services.

4. System and Communications Protection: These standards provide guidance on how to secure the physical and logical components of an IT system.

5. System and Information Integrity: These standards provide guidance on how to protect the integrity of information and systems.

6. Contingency Planning: These standards provide guidance on how to plan for and respond to unexpected events that affect the availability of IT systems and services.

7. Incident Response: These standards provide guidance on how to respond to security incidents.

8. Compliance: These standards provide guidance on how to ensure compliance with applicable laws, regulations, and policies.
