How DDoS Protection Aligns with NIST CSF's Identify & Protect Stages for SMBs
In today's digitally driven world, cybersecurity has become a paramount concern for businesses of all sizes. Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks are one of the most disruptive threats that can cripple an organization's operations by overwhelming its network, applications, or services with a flood of illegitimate traffic. For small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs), understanding the purpose and business value of DDoS protection is crucial. This blog post will explore how DDoS protection aligns with the Identify and Protect stages of the NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) and its role in comprehensive threat protection.
The NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) outlines five core functions: Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond, and Recover. DDoS protection plays a pivotal role in these functions, especially in the Identify and Protect stages, to ensure the robustness and continuity of business operations.
