The document provides information on various security certifications ranging from entry-level to advanced levels, including certifications focused on general security, forensics/anti-hacking, and specific security domains. It describes the purpose and requirements of each certification, as well as the organization that administers it. Many certifications require passing an exam, while some also require work experience, training, or other prerequisites.
In order to bid on Department of Defense (DoD) contracts, hundreds of thousands of organizations will need to be assessed for their Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) Level. But how exactly does that process work?

Protecting Vital Data With NIST Framework - Patrick Kerpan's Secure260 presentation 2016
LocusView Solutions, a Chicago-based subsidiary of the Gas Technology Institute (GTI), applied the NIST Cybersecurity Framework to pass penetration tests and compliance auditing in 2015.
LocusView provides a SaaS solutions to the natural gas industry, and wanted to go beyond standard regulatory compliance to save money and streamline the audit process.
As organizations spend more time and efforts to fight data breaches and fears of fallout from a data loss, IT teams like LocusView can begin comparing existing cybersecurity practices to the NIST Framework to quickly identify any gaps in pinpointing, assessing, and managing risks in their networks.
The NIST Framework was created for critical infrastructureโโโbanking, aviation, defense โโ all organizations can easily apply the principles to their operations. While traditional audit-focused standards value policies and checklists, NISTโs risk-based approach focuses on business and customers.
As part of an in-depth audit, LocusView used the NIST Framework to ensure everything from customer data to cloud-based networks are truly secure.

In 2011, Marc Andreessen said "software is eating the world." Today, that statement is truer than ever. Businesses in every industry - from retail, to energy, to financial - are essentially software companies, with millions of lines of custom source code being written and managed in-house. Additionally, advances in the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) and the emergence of DevOps have allowed some organizations to deploy new code from development to production dozens of time each day. Traditional approaches to securing such large quantities of code, especially at the speed of current development, have proven to be ineffective, as is evident by recent public data breaches of both public and private sector organizations; as well as the resulting legislation, like Presidential Executive Order (EO) 13636, Improving Critical Infrastructure Cybersecurity. The only way for cybersecurity teams to keep up with their development counterparts is to automate, but where should they start?
The NIST Cybersecurity Framework provides guidance for organizations interested in establishing or improving a cybersecurity program. Today, a security automation plan is a crucial aspect of any cybersecurity program.
This talk will describe how the NIST Cybersecurity Framework can be used to establish and implement a plan for integrating security-automation activities into any security program. We'll describe the latest trends in security-automation and DevOps, including how to automatically identify security-best practices being followed, and anti-patterns that indicate a potential risk. Attendees will learn how to consolidate this data in a centralized dashboard of their choosing, and how such information can be automatically distributed to stakeholders throughout their organization.
In the coming years, with the growth of Internet of Things (IoT) and Cloud, organizations will become more and more reliant on custom software. Cybersecurity teams who fail to begin automating soon will only continue to fall further behind and put their organizations at greater risk. The NIST Cybersecurity Framework provides the foundation for such teams to establish their roadmap to security, and this talk will build on that foundation to highlight some potential paths.

Introduction to Risk Management via the NIST Cyber Security FrameworkPECB
ย
The cyber security profession has successfully established explicit guidance for practitioners to implement effective cyber security programs via the NIST Cyber Security Framework (CSF). The CSF provides both a roadmap and a measuring stick for effective cyber security. Application of the CSF within cyber is nothing new, but the resurgence of Enterprise Security Risk Management and Security Convergence highlight opportunities for expanded application for cyber, physical, and personnel security risks. This NIST CSF can help practitioners build a cross-pollenated understanding of holistic risk.
Main points covered:
โข Understand the purpose, value, and application of the NIST CSF in familiar non-technical terms.
โข Understand how the Functions and Categories of the NIST CSF (the CSF โCoreโ) and an organization's โcurrentโ and โtargetโ profiles are relevant and valuable in a variety of sectors and environments.
โข Understand how an organizationโs physical and cyber security resources and stakeholders can align with the NIST CSF as a tool to achieve holistic security risk management.

Cracking the Workplace Discipline Code Main.pptxWorkforce Group

Cultivating and maintaining discipline within teams is a critical differentiator for successful organisations.
Forward-thinking leaders and business managers understand the impact that discipline has on organisational success. A disciplined workforce operates with clarity, focus, and a shared understanding of expectations, ultimately driving better results, optimising productivity, and facilitating seamless collaboration.
Although discipline is not a one-size-fits-all approach, it can help create a work environment that encourages personal growth and accountability rather than solely relying on punitive measures.
In this deck, you will learn the significance of workplace discipline for organisational success. Youโll also learn
โข Four (4) workplace discipline methods you should consider
โข The best and most practical approach to implementing workplace discipline.
โข Three (3) key tips to maintain a disciplined workplace.
Implicitly or explicitly all competing businesses employ a strategy to select a mix
of marketing resources. Formulating such competitive strategies fundamentally
involves recognizing relationships between elements of the marketing mix (e.g.,
price and product quality), as well as assessing competitive and market conditions
(i.e., industry structure in the language of economics).
