NIST Risk Management Framework (RMF)

The NIST Risk Management Framework (RMF) is a structured process that organizations use to identify, assess, and mitigate security risks to their information systems. It helps ensure that the right security measures are in place to protect sensitive data and technology assets. The RMF involves steps like understanding the system, choosing appropriate security controls, implementing them, and continuously monitoring security. This approach promotes a balanced and proactive way to manage risks, making sure systems remain secure while supporting organizational goals.
