In cybersecurity, laws and frameworks like DORA, ISO 27001/27002, NIS2, GDPR, and NIST 800-161 are crucial for strengthening security strategies. RiskStudio simplifies these complex regulations by presenting them visually and structurally, allowing you to view them from different perspectives such as security domains, cybersecurity functions, and risk tiers. This approach helps you quickly identify and implement key points, improving compliance and risk management.
In the world of cybersecurity and risk management, laws, regulations and frameworks such as DORA, ISO 27001/27002, NIS2, GDPR, and NIST 800-161 form the basis for strengthening security strategies. Despite their unique characteristics, they share some important common elements:
We have read and standardized all relevant laws, regulations and risk frameworks including NIS2, DORA and ISO 27001/27002, and laws and regulations. Whichever law or framework you choose as your starting point: this makes complex laws, texts and requirements much more understandable and easier to apply. After choosing one of the built-in templates, you can look at the selected regulations and associated measures (controls) from different perspectives:
Security domains
These domains represent different areas of concern within an organization's cybersecurity infrastructure, and each domain includes specific measures (controls) needed to ensure the security and integrity of information and systems.
Examples of security domains:
Cybersecurity functions
Here the measures/controls are categorized from the perspective of cybersecurity functions. These categories form the basis of a systematic approach to managing cybersecurity risks. These functions help organizations develop and implement a wide range of security measures. They form a core structure used in various cybersecurity frameworks. Cybersecurity Functions are also called Cybersecurity Framework Core or Functional Groups:
Risk Tiers
These tiers help organizations organize and prioritize security measures and strategies at different levels of business operations. They are referred to as Risk Tiers or Risk Management Tiers:
RiskStudio presents complex, often lengthy laws and regulations visually and in a structured manner, making them easier to understand and apply. At the touch of a button, you can look at it from different perspectives, such as security domains, cybersecurity functions and risk layer. This helps you quickly identify key points and implement them effectively, improving compliance and risk management.
This functionality allows you to conduct Risk Surveys in your or your client's organization based on the available templates. You define the scope yourself by selecting frameworks, legislation, such as NIS2, GDPR, DORA or ISO 27001, Security Domains, Functional groups and Risk Tiers. We will discuss this functionality in more detail in a future blog.
