Cybersecurity Domain Map ver 3.0

Since the first publication of the Map of Cybersecurity Domains rev. 2.0 in Feb 2017, I received overwhelming responses from readers everywhere. I'd like to thank each one of you who provided the feedback to make the next version up-to-date and to adapt ever changing cybersecurity landscape. Many of your invaluable inputs have been incorporated with this updated version. 

A lot has changed in the past four years. Attack vectors and methods; controls and countermeasures; cybersecurity and privacy regulations here in the U.S. as well as abroad. I also changed jobs. For little over a year I became a dedicated risk management officer to build a 2nd line defense program to better manage the cyber security risks for an international bank; then I switched back to be the 1st line CISO for the largest SaaS GRC company. 

Throughout different roles it afforded me to look cyber security from different perspectives. Because of that, the two main areas that I updated the most for Map 3.0 are related to application security and risk management practices.

Again no specific product names are included on the Map. Also the Map will not fit all regulations, frameworks, controls and methodologies that are out there. I only included the domains that I think are most prevalent and comprehensive for general cybersecurity practices. 

Just like the version 2.0, the Map and its entire content is for public consumption, you can share it and re-use as you see fit.  I provided the following formats of the Map so you can download those files directly:

? PDF 

? Freemind (*.MM) Mind Map app 

? PNG (lossless)

? HTML (outline only)
