YOUR DATA IS YOUR BUSINESS
The SBDC’s approach to cybersecurity addresses people, skills, and technology. The journey starts with an inventory; what you use to conduct business will determine the best ways to proceed. The network utilizes the NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) cybersecurity framework. There are five parts comprising this approach: identity, detect, protect, respond, and recover.
