We're excited to announce the launch of The Banking on Security Webinar Series, a new free monthly webinar series from Bedel Security created specifically for community banks and credit unions.

 

Each month, we'll tackle timely information security, governance, and technology topics with practical guidance you can take back to your institution.
SEPTEMBER'S TOPIC

Practical Steps To Completing the NIST CSF Assessment

 

With the FFIEC Cybersecurity Assessment Tool (CAT) now sunset, financial institutions are increasingly looking to the NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) 2.0 as their cybersecurity assessment framework of choice. However, many organizations are asking the same questions: Where do we start? What outcomes should we assess? And how do we turn the results into meaningful improvements?

Join Bedel Security for a practical discussion on conducting a NIST CSF 2.0 risk assessment. This session will walk through the assessment process, including identifying relevant outcomes, establishing a measurement methodology, documenting results, and prioritizing improvement opportunities.

Attendees will learn how to use the assessment as more than a compliance exercise by turning it into a strategic tool for managing cybersecurity risk.
