Listen "Introduction to NIST 800-53"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of Bare Metal Cyber Presents: Framework, we take a deep dive into NIST 800-53, one of the most comprehensive security frameworks for implementing structured security and privacy controls. Originally developed for federal agencies and contractors, NIST 800-53 has evolved into a widely adopted framework for organizations seeking to build a resilient cybersecurity strategy. We break down how this framework provides a detailed catalog of controls across access management, risk assessment, incident response, and continuous monitoring—offering technical, operational, and administrative safeguards to strengthen cybersecurity defenses.We also explore how NIST 800-53 aligns with risk management frameworks like NIST CSF and regulatory requirements such as FISMA, ISO 27001, and CMMC. By understanding its 20 control families, organizations can tailor security measures to meet compliance mandates while proactively mitigating cyber risks. Whether you're looking to enhance security governance, streamline compliance, or implement best-in-class security controls, this episode provides actionable insights into how NIST 800-53 can be leveraged for a scalable and adaptive cybersecurity program. Tune in to learn how to strengthen your security posture with one of the most widely recognized cybersecurity frameworks.
