The NIST RMF Life Cycle
In this chapter, we dive into the nuanced journey of the NIST Risk Management Framework (RMF), a journey that is both cyclical and evolving. Unlike the foundational setup discussed in the previous chapter, this segment focuses on guiding you through the life cycle of the RMF, emphasizing the dynamic nature of risk management in the cyber world. Here, we will navigate through a detailed step-by-step breakdown of the RMF stages, not merely revisiting what was covered in Chapter 4 but expanding on it with a focus on real-world applicability and tailoring the framework to specific organizational needs.
In this chapter, we’re going to cover the following main topics:
