NIST Cybersecurity Framework

Overview

The NIST Cybersecurity Framework organizes cybersecurity outcomes across Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond, and Recover.

16 controls available in ComplAI for this framework.

Who it's for

• US and global organizations building a risk-based cyber program
• Leadership teams needing a common risk language
• Programs aligning multiple frameworks to one posture model

Why it matters

CSF is widely understood by boards and regulators. ComplAI maps CSF functions to actionable controls and readiness.

How ComplAI helps

• Activate NIST CSF in the Framework Library to load its control catalog
• Assign owners, track compliance status, and attach evidence per control
• Use risk register and issues workflows when controls fail or deviate
• Export readiness views for leadership and auditors
