NIST CYBERSECURITY FRAMEWORK
NIST CSF Assessment & Consulting
Use the NIST Cybersecurity Framework to understand cyber risk, identify control gaps, prioritize remediation, and build a stronger cybersecurity program.
ASSESS • PRIORITIZE • IMPROVE
Turn framework requirements into practical security improvements
Synapse Cyber focuses on making framework work operational: understanding your current state, identifying meaningful gaps, connecting findings to business risk, and producing a remediation roadmap that can be tracked over time.
Identify
Understand assets, business context, dependencies, vulnerabilities, threats, and cyber risk exposure.
Protect
Review safeguards across identity, access, data security, awareness, platform security, and resilience.
Detect
Evaluate monitoring, event analysis, logging, detection processes, and visibility into abnormal activity.
Respond
Assess incident management, communications, analysis, mitigation, reporting, and recovery coordination.
Recover
Strengthen recovery planning, restoration priorities, lessons learned, and resilience improvement.
Scope
Define systems, business processes, stakeholders, and assessment objectives.
Assess
Map current practices and evidence against NIST CSF outcomes.
Prioritize
Rank gaps by risk, business impact, maturity, and implementation effort.
Improve
Build a practical remediation roadmap with owners and measurable outcomes.
Common questions
What is a NIST CSF assessment?
A NIST CSF assessment evaluates current cybersecurity practices against the framework's outcomes to identify strengths, gaps, risk priorities, and opportunities for improvement.
Is NIST CSF only for large organizations?
No. The framework can be scaled to organizations of different sizes and maturity levels, including small and mid-sized organizations.
Can Synapse Cyber help with implementation after the assessment?
Yes. Assessment findings can be translated into remediation actions, ownership, evidence requirements, and an implementation roadmap.
Turn framework requirements into an assessment roadmap.
Define scope, identify control gaps, prioritize risk, organize evidence, and build a remediation plan that can be tracked through completion.
