How to Jumpstart Your NIST Cybersecurity Framework Maturity: Detect Function

Brian Proctor | March 3, 2020
Continuing our blog series on how to jumpstart your NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) maturity, we’ll now dive into some of the industry-leading use cases we’re seeing for the Detect Function. This is the Function that really brought OT security to the mainstream back in the early 2010s when some of the first intrusion detection technologies for control systems (like ours) were introduced to the market. Security activities categorized under the Detect Function can include everything from implementing continuous network security monitoring, as mentioned above, to assembling a blue team that proactively hunts for indicators of compromise (IoCs) on your network.
Whatever tactics you use, the spirit of this Function is to implement procedures and technologies that can identify the occurrence of a cybersecurity event. Here’s how our most innovative customers are applying the Detect Function in their operational technology (OT) environments:
