Description
The NCSC Cyber Assessment Framework (CAF), developed by the UK's National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC), provides organizations with a structured and systematic way to assess and manage cybersecurity risks. It is particularly useful for organizations within critical national infrastructure (CNI) sectors but is flexible enough for broader application. The framework is built around four main objectives: managing security risk, protecting against cyber-attacks, detecting cyber events, and minimizing the impact of incidents.
Overview
The NCSC CAF is aimed at organizations that provide essential services or critical infrastructure, particularly those regulated by the UK's NIS regulations. Its purpose is to help these organizations improve their cybersecurity resilience by ensuring they manage cyber risks effectively and maintain compliance with regulatory requirements.
