Cyber Security Maturity Model - CMM

 

What is Cyber Security Maturity Model (CMM)?

CyberSec maturity model is a way to know or to define our current program maturity. We can make use of CMM whenever we are talking with higher-level management.

We can also identify our weaknesses and strengths in the program using CMM.

CMM can be measured using some levels/stages to show where our program is today. Also, we can do the profiling for the future. Where we want to bring our program in terms of maturity level.

CMM helps us to look at the following things –

We can follow PDCA (Plan, do, check and act) strategy to maintain these requirements.

To know the maturity model of our CyberSec program we can follow NIST CSF, CMMI, etc.

We will look for all these 10 domains whenever assessing current CMM.

Cybersecurity Maturity Models:
