{tableName=glossary, name=Incident Response Plan, description= An Incident Response Plan is a set of written instructions that outlines the steps an organization should take when responding to a security incident. It is a comprehensive document that covers all aspects of incident response, from initial detection and analysis to containment, eradication, and recovery. The plan should also include post-incident activities such as reporting, analysis, and follow-up. The plan should be tailored to the organization’s specific needs, and should include policies and procedures for responding to incidents, such as a communications plan, a notification plan, and a process for gathering evidence. The plan should also include roles and responsibilities for staff and resources, both internal and external, that will be involved in the incident response process., topic=null, hs_path=incident-response-plan}--
{tableName=glossary, name=Asset Security, description= Asset security is the protection of physical and digital assets from unauthorized access, use, disclosure, disruption, modification, or destruction. It involves the application of security controls to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of assets. Asset security is a critical component of an organization's overall security strategy, as it helps protect its data, systems, and networks from malicious actors. This includes protecting against malicious actors who may attempt to gain access to sensitive information, disrupt operations, or damage the organization's reputation. Asset security also helps organizations protect their investments in hardware, software, and intellectual property. It involves the implementation of technical controls such as firewalls, authentication, encryption, and access control systems, as well as the development of policies and procedures for asset management, such as asset tracking, inventory control, and asset disposal. Asset security also includes the monitoring of assets to detect any unauthorized access or suspicious activity., topic=[{id=97620570528, createdAt=1673040885452, updatedAt=1683947994134, path='cybersecurity-risk-management', name=' Cybersecurity Risk Management: A Guide for Businesses', 1='{type=string, value=Cybersecurity Risk Management}', 2='{type=string, value= This guide provides essential information on cyber security risk management, including how to identify, assess, and mitigate risks to your organization's data and systems.

It outlines the importance of understanding the threats and vulnerabilities that exist in the digital environment, as well as the steps that can be taken to mitigate these risks. It also discusses the need to develop a culture of security within an organization and the role of leadership in setting the tone for a secure environment. Finally, the guide provides guidance on the selection and implementation of security technologies, as well as the monitoring and review of risk management processes. This guide is an essential resource for anyone looking to understand and manage risks associated with cyber threats.}'}], hs_path=asset-security}--
{tableName=glossary, name=Domain Name System (DNS), description= The Domain Name System (DNS) is a hierarchical distributed naming system for computers, services, or other resources connected to the Internet or a private network. It associates various information with domain names assigned to each of the participating entities. Most prominently, it translates domain names, which can be easily memorized by humans, to the numerical IP addresses needed for the purpose of locating and identifying computer services and devices with the underlying network protocols. The Domain Name System is an essential component of the functionality of the Internet, as it provides a worldwide, distributed directory service. It is responsible for translating domain names into the corresponding IP addresses, as well as providing other information such as mail routing information, and providing a list of available services associated with a domain. The Domain Name System is an integral part of the functionality of the Internet, as it provides a worldwide distributed directory service., topic=null, hs_path=domain-name-system-dns}--
{tableName=glossary, name=Risk Identification (Ri), description= Risk Identification (Ri) is the process of identifying and understanding potential risks that may affect an organization, project, or process. This process typically involves the identification of both internal and external factors that may have an impact on the organization, project, or process. Risk identification involves analyzing the environment and the organization's activities to identify potential risks. It also involves the analysis of internal and external data to identify potential risks. The process includes the identification of the sources of risk, the assessment of the probability of occurrence, and the evaluation of the consequences of the risk. The purpose of risk identification is to identify and prioritize risks that need to be addressed, so that the organization can manage them effectively., topic=null, hs_path=risk-identification-ri}--

{tableName=glossary, name=Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA), description= Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA) is a process used to identify, assess, and manage data protection risks within an organization. It is an important tool for organizations to ensure that personal data is processed in accordance with the applicable data protection laws and regulations. A DPIA is a risk-based assessment that helps organizations to identify and mitigate any potential risks associated with the processing of personal data. It is used to evaluate the necessity and proportionality of the processing activities, to identify and assess the potential risks to the rights and freedoms of individuals, and to identify any measures necessary to address those risks. The DPIA should be conducted before the processing of personal data begins and should be updated periodically to ensure that the risks are managed and minimized. The DPIA should include the identification of the data controller and processor, the purpose of the data processing, the categories of personal data to be processed, the recipients of the data, the duration of the data processing, the security measures in place, and the measures taken to protect the rights of the data subjects., topic=null, hs_path=data-protection-impact-assessment-dpia}--
