{tableName=glossary, name=NIST SP 800-53 Enhanced Controls, description= NIST SP 800-53 Enhanced Controls are additional security controls that are designed to supplement the baseline security controls outlined in the NIST SP 800-53 security control framework. These enhanced controls are designed to provide additional security measures that organizations can use to protect their systems and data from cyber threats. The enhanced controls are divided into three categories: Supplemental, Derived, and Additional. Supplemental controls are designed to supplement existing baseline security controls in order to provide additional protection. Derived controls are derived from existing baseline security controls and provide additional security measures that are tailored to the specific needs of the organization. Additional controls are additional security measures that are not covered by baseline security controls and are designed to provide additional protection. The enhanced controls are designed to provide organizations with the flexibility to tailor their security posture to their specific needs, while still adhering to the security requirements outlined in the NIST SP 800-53 security control framework., topic=[{id=97620570515, createdAt=1673040885373, updatedAt=1683947942816, path='nist-sp-800-53', name=' NIST SP 800-53 Security Guide: Protect Your Data', 1='{type=string, value=NIST SP 800-53}', 2='{type=string, value= This guide provides a comprehensive overview of NIST SP 800-53, a security and privacy control framework for federal information systems and organizations.

{tableName=glossary, name=ISO/IEC Cybersecurity, description= ISO/IEC Cybersecurity is a set of principles and practices designed to protect networks, systems, programs, and data from unauthorized access, use, disclosure, disruption, modification, or destruction. It includes the prevention, detection, and response to cyber-attacks, as well as the implementation of measures to protect against them. Cybersecurity is an important part of any organization’s information security program and is often a critical component of an organization’s overall risk management strategy. ISO/IEC Cybersecurity standards provide organizations with guidance on how to protect their information assets from potential risks, including malicious attacks. These standards provide a framework for organizations to develop, implement, and maintain effective cybersecurity programs that protect their information assets from unauthorized access, use, disclosure, disruption, modification, or destruction., topic=null, hs_path=iso-iec-cybersecurity}--

{tableName=glossary, name=ISO/IEC Certifications, description= ISO/IEC certifications are a set of international standards for quality assurance and assurance of conformity. These certifications are designed to help organizations demonstrate that they have implemented processes, procedures and systems that meet the requirements of the ISO/IEC standards. ISO/IEC certifications are awarded by independent third-party organizations, such as the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). The ISO/IEC certifications are based on a set of criteria and requirements, which are designed to ensure that organizations are able to meet the highest level of quality and safety standards. The ISO/IEC certifications are used in a wide range of industries, including manufacturing, healthcare, finance, and information technology. By obtaining ISO/IEC certifications, organizations are able to demonstrate their commitment to quality and safety, while also providing assurance to their customers that their products and services meet the highest standards., topic=null, hs_path=iso-iec-certifications}--
{tableName=glossary, name=Malware Vs. Viruses Vs. Worm, description=s Malware: Malware is a type of software designed to harm or exploit computer systems without the user’s knowledge or consent. It can be used to gain access to sensitive information, steal data, or cause damage to a computer system or network. Common types of malware include viruses, worms, spyware, adware, ransomware, and Trojans. Viruses: A virus is a type of malware that infects computer systems or networks by replicating itself without the user’s knowledge or consent. It can spread from one computer to another, often via email or malicious websites. Once a virus is installed on a computer, it can cause damage by deleting files, corrupting data, or stealing information. Worms: A worm is a type of malware that replicates itself across computer networks without the user’s knowledge or consent. Unlike a virus, a worm does not require a host program to spread. It can spread from one computer to another, often via email or malicious websites. Worms can be used to steal data, spread malicious code, or cause damage to a computer system or network., topic=null, hs_path=malware-vs.-viruses-vs.-worm}--
