5.2.5: Vulnerability management

Oh no! No description found. But not to worry. Read from Tasks below how to advance this topic.

Objective: Vulnerabilities increase the risk of IT systems being unable to meet the requirements for confidentiality, availability and integrity. Exploitation of vulnerabilities is among the possible ways for attackers to gain access to the IT system or to threaten its operating stability.

Requirements (must): Information on technical vulnerabilities for the IT systems in use is gathered (e.g. information from the manufacturer, system audits, CVS database) and evaluated (e.g. Common Vulnerability Scoring System CVSS)
+ Potentially affected IT systems and software are identified, assessed and any vulnerabilities are addressed.

Requirements (should): An adequate patch management is defined and implemented (e.g. patch testing and installation).
+ Risk minimizing measures are implemented, as necessary.
+ Successful installation of patches is verified in an appropriate manner.

This requirement is part of the framework:  
TISAX: Information security

The ISMS component hierachy

When building an ISMS, it's important to understand the different levels of information hierarchy. Here's how Cyberday is structured.

Framework

Sets the overall compliance standard or regulation your organization needs to follow.

Requirements

Break down the framework into specific obligations that must be met.

Tasks

Concrete actions and activities your team carries out to satisfy each requirement.

Policies

Documented rules and practices that are created and maintained as a result of completing tasks.

Never duplicate effort. Do it once - improve compliance across frameworks.

Reach multi-framework compliance in the simplest possible way
Security frameworks tend to share the same core requirements - like risk management, backup, malware, personnel awareness or access management.
Cyberday maps all frameworks’ requirements into shared tasks - one single plan that improves all frameworks’ compliance.
Do it once - we automatically apply it to all current and future frameworks.
