U.S. Cyber Security Defined
2 Questions:
•Are you U.S. Critical Infrastructure (CI)?
•Do you have physical or virtual systems and
assets so vital to the United States that the
incapacity or destruction of such systems and
assets would have a debilitating impact on
– National security,
– National economic security, and/or
– National public health or safety?

Framework Background
 Presidential Executive Order 13636 (2013)
 Failure by Congress to pass cyber legislation
 Unprecedented cyber threat environment
 Role of NIST
 Operates under Department of Commerce
 Develop industry-led voluntary framework
 Process
 Ten months, five workshops, transparent process
 12,000 public comments adjudicated
 Collaboration between NIST, White House (NSC),
DHS, and private sector

Framework Basics
 Core: Set of cybersecurity activities and informative
references common across CI
 Functions: Overview of organization’s management of
cyber risks
 Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond, Recover (IPDRR)
Tiers: Mechanism to view approach and processes for
managing cyber risk
1. Partial
2. Risk Informed
3. Repeatable
4. Adaptive
 Tier 4 is not the goal for every organization

Framework Basics (continued)
 Profiles
 Alignment of IPDRR with business requirements, risk
tolerance, and resources of organization
 Current Profile
 Target Profile
 Profiles create gap analysis
Creating a profile helps a company understand its
dependencies with business partners, vendors, and
suppliers.

What the Framework is Really About
 Creating a common language for cyber risk management
 COBIT 5, ISO/IEC 27001, NIST 800-53, CCS CSC, and ISA 62443
 Objective: Facilitate behavioral change in organizations
 Treat cyber risk as a mission equal in priority to other corporate risk
 Intended for critical infrastructure owners and operators
 Can/May be used by many others
 Applies market-driven approach to cyber risk management
 Product of industry, not government
 Not one size fits all…user experience will vary

Implications of Framework
 Industry: Each Sector Will Define Adoption
 Identify metrics for success
 Facilitate information sharing within industry
 Defining cost-effectiveness
 Role for insurance….finally?
 Cyber Liability
 Cyber Breach
 Business
 Small (prioritize, develop risk management process)
 Medium (grow risk management process)
 Large (mature risk management process, share best
practices and lessons learned)

Framework: The Way Ahead (continued)
 Industry
 Adopt Framework by mapping it to existing risk
management process and addressing gaps that are
identified through profile development
 Conduct training to “normalize” cyber risk behavior, including
simulations and exercises with corporate leadership
 Participate in additional workshops on implementation
and areas for improvement
 Feedback to government: Lessons learned/what works/what
doesn’t/what’s missing
 Industry input will shape development of Framework 2.0
 Non-lifeline sector adoption
 Retail, Manufacturing, Information Technology, etc.

Framework: The Way Ahead (continued)
 Government
 DHS role evolving
 Launched Critical Infrastructure Cyber Community (C3
or C
Cubed) Voluntary Program
 Providing managed security services to states, localities who
adopt framework - a good first step
 Work with Sector Specific Agencies (SSA) in first year, expand to
all CI business in future
 Seeking input from small business on framework adoption
 Working on evolving incentives
 International adoption…and overcoming Snowden
challenge
 Need for role of US business with global presence to engage
and facilitate

 Initial Areas for Further Work
 Authentication
 Automated Indicator Sharing
 Conformity Assessment
 Cybersecurity Workforce
 Data Analytics
 Federal Agency Cybersecurity Alignment
 Supply Chain Risk Management
 International Aspects, Impacts, and Alignment

Communicating Cyber Security to All Levels
• Board
Getting hacked is not a matter of IF, but When.
• Management
Security is a Journey.
Not a Destination.
• All
Security is Everyone’s Responsibility.
Stop. Think. Connect.
