?? Introduction

In the ever-evolving digital landscape, cybersecurity is no longer optional but a regulatory and operational necessity. Every country has established cybersecurity agencies and regulatory boards to define policies, handle incidents, protect critical infrastructure, and ensure organizations adopt the right security practices.

This guide covers:

? Global cybersecurity agencies (country-wise)

? Their core working pattern/framework

? Tools and technologies they recommend or align with

?? Global Cybersecurity Agencies & Their Working Framework

?? Global Collaborations

  • FIRST.org: Global CERTs network
  • APCERT: Asia-Pacific CERT collaboration
  • ITU (UN Body): ICT cybercrime treaties and global standards
  • OECD Cybersecurity Group: Policy coordination

?? Globally Recommended Tool Categories by Agencies

Cybersecurity agencies do not "certify" specific commercial tools but recommend tool categories based on NIST CSF, ISO, CIS Controls, and their respective national frameworks.

? 1. Identity & Access Management (IAM) / Zero Trust Tools

? 2. Endpoint Detection & Response (EDR/XDR)

? 3. SIEM / SOAR (Security Operations & Incident Response)

? 4. Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM)

? 5. Network Security / WAF / DDoS Protection

? 6. Data Loss Prevention (DLP) / Encryption

? 7. Vulnerability Assessment / Pentesting

? 8. Email Security / Anti-Phishing

?? Tools Recommended in India’s Cyber Framework

?? Open-Source Tools Widely Accepted

  • Wireshark: Packet analysis (CISA, NIST Training)
  • Snort / Suricata: IDS/IPS
  • Metasploit: Penetration testing
  • OpenVAS: Vulnerability scanning

? Cyber Governance Framework (General Working Model)

Governments ? Cybersecurity Agencies ? Sector-Specific Guidelines ? Organizations Implement Recommended Tools ? Continuous Monitoring & Compliance

Example: ???? US ? CISA/NIST ? Financial/Healthcare sectors ? Use EDR, SIEM, IAM ? Report incidents ???? India ? CERT-In/NCIIPC ? Banks/Stock Market/Telecom ? Tools like DLP, VA/PT ? Report quarterly

?? Conclusion: What Should Organizations Do?

? Align with NIST CSF, CIS Controls, ISO 27001, CERT-In, or country-specific guidelines

? Select tools validated by global best practices, covering: ? IAM & Zero Trust ? Endpoint Security (EDR/XDR) ? Cloud Security (CSPM/CWPP) ? SIEM/SOAR ? Email & Data Security ? Regular Penetration Testing & Vulnerability Management ? Ensure compliance with GDPR, DPDP Act (India), PCI DSS, HIPAA, etc.

Cybersecurity is global but locally enforced — choose tools mapped to your regulator’s expectations and global standards.
