Summary

Hide ▲

Public sector cybersecurity leaders face unique challenges in defending against AI vulnerabilities and threats with limited resources. Proactive defense strategies using established cybersecurity frameworks can help fortify IT environments and reduce reactive measures. The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Cybersecurity Framework (CSF), MITRE ATT&CK, and Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) are among the frameworks that can guide cybersecurity efforts. These frameworks provide structured approaches to identifying, protecting, detecting, responding to, and recovering from cyber threats. Implementing these frameworks requires continuous effort and the right tools, but they can significantly enhance cyber resilience and preparedness.
