{tableName=glossary, name=NIST 800-53 Risk Assessment, description= NIST 800-53 Risk Assessment is a comprehensive process used to identify, assess, and manage the security risks associated with the use, processing, storage, and transmission of information and information systems. It involves analyzing the security controls in place, evaluating the potential threats and vulnerabilities, and determining the appropriate risk mitigation strategies. This process is designed to ensure that the organization has the appropriate security controls in place to protect its information and information systems from unauthorized access, use, disclosure, disruption, modification, or destruction. The risk assessment should be conducted on a regular basis to ensure that the organization’s security posture is up to date and that any new threats or vulnerabilities have been identified and addressed. The NIST 800-53 Risk Assessment approach helps organizations to identify and address security risks in a timely and cost-effective manner., topic=[{id=97620570515, createdAt=1673040885373, updatedAt=1715624498921, 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=Secure Access Service Edge (SASE), description= Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) is a cloud-based networking and security model that provides secure access to applications, services, and data from any device, from any location, and over any network. It combines network and security services, such as SD-WAN, firewall, CASB, Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA), and Identity and Access Management (IAM) into a unified cloud-based platform. SASE provides a secure, reliable, and cost-effective way to enable remote access for users and devices, and to protect enterprise networks and data from malicious threats. SASE also provides organizations with the ability to securely connect branch offices, teleworkers, and cloud applications and data, while providing granular control over who can access what resources. Additionally, SASE enables organizations to reduce their reliance on physical network infrastructure and to simplify their network architecture., topic=null, hs_path=secure-access-service-edge-sase}--
{tableName=glossary, name=Cloud Controls Matrix (CCM) Domains, description= A Cloud Controls Matrix (CCM) Domains is a set of security controls and associated security requirements that are used to ensure the security of cloud-based services, applications, and data. It is a collection of security controls that are designed to protect cloud-based services, applications, and data from unauthorized access, misuse, and loss. The CCM Domains provide a framework for organizations to evaluate the security posture of their cloud-based services, applications, and data, and to ensure that the security controls are implemented to meet the organization's security requirements. The CCM Domains are divided into four main areas: Identity and Access Management, Data Protection, Infrastructure Security, and Application Security. The Identity and Access Management Domain focuses on the security of user accounts and authentication, while the Data Protection Domain focuses on the security of the data stored in the cloud. The Infrastructure Security Domain focuses on the security of the cloud infrastructure, while the Application Security Domain focuses on the security of the applications running on the cloud. The CCM Domains provide organizations with a comprehensive security framework that can be used to ensure the security of their cloud-based services, applications, and data., topic=null, hs_path=cloud-controls-matrix-ccm-domains}--
{tableName=glossary, name=Cybersecurity Management, description= Cybersecurity Management is the practice of protecting networks, systems, and programs from digital attacks.
