How Cisodium Operationalizes NIST CSF

From profile building to continuous monitoring — every function covered.

Function-Level Dashboards

Get dedicated dashboards for each of the six NIST CSF 2.0 functions — Govern, Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond, and Recover. See implementation progress, control maturity, and gaps at a glance. Each function rolls up into an overall framework score that tracks your cybersecurity posture over time.

Category & Subcategory Mapping

All 23 categories and 108 subcategories come pre-loaded and ready to map. Assign controls, policies, and evidence to each subcategory. Cisodium tracks implementation status across every level — so you always know which areas need attention and which are fully addressed.

Current vs Target Profile

Build your Current Profile and Target Profile side by side. Cisodium highlights the gaps between where you are and where you need to be, prioritized by business impact. Generate action plans with owners, deadlines, and budget estimates to close each gap systematically.

Risk-Informed Prioritization

NIST CSF is risk-based by design. Cisodium connects your risk register directly to framework subcategories, so high-risk areas surface automatically. Use quantitative risk scoring, heat maps, and financial exposure modeling to decide where to invest limited resources first.

Continuous Monitoring & Detection

Operationalize the Detect function with real-time monitoring dashboards. Integrate with your SIEM, EDR, and vulnerability scanners to track detection coverage. Map detection capabilities to MITRE ATT&CK techniques and identify blind spots before adversaries exploit them.

Response & Recovery Planning

Build and test incident response and recovery playbooks mapped directly to the Respond and Recover functions. Track response times, recovery objectives (RTO/RPO), and lessons learned. Every incident automatically links to the affected CSF subcategories for continuous improvement.
