Head in the Cloud? Cloud Applicability of the NIST Cybersecurity Framework

The NIST Cybersecurity Framework is the gold standard by which organizations evaluate their cybersecurity controls. The NIST Cybersecurity Framework was developed in 2014 with a minor revision in 2018. The threat landscape has changed dramatically over the past decade, with threat actors becoming more refined in their methods. The technology landscape has also evolved, and cloud computing platforms such as AWS and Azure did not exist a decade ago. With these significant changes in the cybersecurity domain, does the NIST Cybersecurity Framework still help organizations to prevent and reduce cybersecurity risk effectively?
