DEFCON CYBER™ is the first software application to operationalize the NIST CSF, thus enabling execution of both process and outcome measures, resulting in continuous cybersecurity risk posture assessment.ĭEFCON CYBER™ effects a consistent prioritization and measurement of the organization's ability to produce the outcomes needed to achieve its desired cybersecurity risk goals, including closing the communication gap between the technical and business domains within an organization. The CSF lays out a broad approach for organizations of all types and sizes to adopt a risk management approach to cybersecurity protection for their organization - the extent to which cybersecurity risk management is driven by business needs and is integrated into an organization's overall risk management practices.

The CSF published by NIST, has initiated a much needed national conversation about how to address the critical topic of Cybersecurity Risk Management.

DEFCON CYBER™ operationalizes this risk management oriented approach, by intercepting all indicators and alerts from an organization's cybersecurity tool stack, including tool suites such as continuous monitoring, SIEM, forensics, and prioritizes each instance of an indicator or alert according to the organization's CSF Profile, which is determined and linked to the organization's risk management strategy. An organization needs to have the ability to execute its cybersecurity risk management strategy by responding to priority indicators of compromise, and being proactive in finding indicators of compromise. Rofori recognizes many organizations do not have sufficient resources to respond to and protect against every indicator of cybersecurity compromise all of the time. In the current cybersecurity environment, organizations tend to be reactionary with limited human response times that are unable to cope with high volume machine-speed incident detection. Organizations are being overwhelmed at an unprecedented level with the growing number of incursions, compounded by the increasing stack of detection tools.
