NIST CSF 2.0

A voluntary framework for organizing cybersecurity risk.

The Cybersecurity Framework is not certifiable. It gives organizations a common language across six functions: Govern, Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond, Recover. Version 2.0 added Govern and broadened scope beyond critical infrastructure to any organization.

AT A GLANCE
ISSUERNIST REGIONUnited States, widely adopted CATEGORYSecurity CROSSWALKVersioned mapping onto the 15-control registry
EVIDENCE, NOT CERTIFICATION
01. WHO IT APPLIES TO

Is this one yours?

01Organizations that want a maturity model rather than a pass/fail audit
02US companies whose customers or regulators reference NIST
03Teams building a program that will later map to 800-53 or FedRAMP
02. KEY REQUIREMENTS

The parts of NIST CSF 2.0 that touch what agents do.

PR.AA Identity and access
Access to assets is limited to authorized users, services, and hardware, commensurate with risk.
DE.CM Continuous monitoring
Assets are monitored to find anomalies and potentially adverse events.
GV.RR Roles and responsibilities
Accountability for cybersecurity risk is established and communicated.
PR.DS Data security
Data is managed consistent with the organization's risk strategy to protect confidentiality and integrity.
03. HOW LORE MAPS TO IT

Enforcement controls, read against the requirement.

These controls exist because the platform needs them to run safely. The crosswalk reads their signed evidence against NIST CSF 2.0. Where there is no evidence, the report says gap.

04. OUT OF SCOPE

What Lore will not claim.

Recover and most of Respond depend on your incident program, not on the platform.
Tier and profile selection are organizational decisions.
05. QUESTIONS
Is there a CSF certificate?
No. CSF is a self-assessed framework. The crosswalk gives you evidence for the subcategories Lore enforces, which supports a profile but does not certify one.
Which version?
CSF 2.0, released February 2024.
How does this relate to 800-53?
CSF describes outcomes; 800-53 lists controls. NIST publishes informative references between them and the Lore crosswalks follow the same links.
