NIST launches self-assessment tool for cybersecurity
The National Institute for Science and Technology has published a draft questionnaire that companies and other organizations can use to assess their cybersecurity “maturity” — a response, NIST says, to demand from the private sector.
Boosters say the document will help specialists explain the importance of cybersecurity to the company’s bottom line — the “holy grail” of business cybersecurity. But some critics have questioned how useful it will be to smaller companies.
