Dec. 6, 2024 · Authored by Morgan Mincy, Amanda Vellocido

This on-demand webinar was originally presented for the Association of College and University Auditors (ACUA).

Since the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) first introduced the Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) in 2014, numerous organizations have adopted it to enhance and guide their cybersecurity program. Over the past decade, rising cyber threats and widespread implementation of the framework across many industries, including higher education, have prompted NIST to release CSF version 2.0.

This webinar examines the challenges of implementing the NIST CSF within the higher education environment, key updates and impacts from version 1.0 to 2.0 and ways for higher education institutions to conduct audits using the latest version of the NIST CSF.
