Earlier this month, the Obama
administration released its ‘cybersecurity framework’, which is a best
practices guide for banking, defense, utilities and other industries to help
protect against attacks by hackers. The guidelines were developed after
President Obama signed an executive order that called on the Commerce
Department to create cybersecurity guidelines. The framework is built around
five categories: identify, protect, detect, respond and recover. The Department
of Homeland Security has announced that it will start a program to help
companies with the implementation of this framework, and recommends companies
to take all five categories into consideration when developing cybersecurity
guidelines. Major tech groups are rallying behind the framework as it increases
awareness of the importance of cybersecurity, especially for big companies that
have recently suffered attacks from hackers.
