GUIDE | Financial Services  NIST SP 1800-5a  \nIT Asset Management  \nExecutive Summary  \n􀂄 The National Cybersecurity Center of Excellence (NCCoE), part of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), developed an example solution that financial services companies can use for amore secure and efficient way of monitoring and managing their many IT hardware and software assets.  \n􀂄 The security characteristics in our IT asset management platform are derived from the best practices of standards organizations, including the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) .  \n􀂄 The NCCoE’s approach uses open source and commercially available products that can be included alongside current products in your existing infrastructure. It provides a centralized, comprehensive view of networked hardware and software across an enterprise, reducing vulnerabilities and response time to security alerts, and increasing resilience.  \n􀂄 The example solution is packaged as a “How To” guide that demonstrates implementation of standards-based cybersecurity technologies in the real world. The guide helps organizations gain efficiencies in asset management, while saving them research and proof of concept costs.  \nTHE CHALLENGE  \nLarge financial services organizations employ tens or hundreds of thousands of individuals. At this scale, the technology base required to ensure smooth business operations (including computers, mobile devices, operating systems, applications, data, and network resources) is massive. To effectively manage, use, and secure each of those assets, you need to know their locations and functions. While physical assets can be labeled with bar codes and tracked in a database, this approach does not answer questions such as “What operating systems are our laptops running?” and “Which devices are vulnerable to the latest threat?”  \nComputer security professionals in the financial services sector told us they are challenged by the vast diversity of hardware and software they attempt to track, and by a lack of centralized control: A large financial services organization can include subsidiaries, branches, third-party partners, contractors, as well as temporary workers and guests. This complexity makes it difficult to assess vulnerabilities or to respond quickly to threats, and accurately assess risk in the first place (by pinpointing the most valuable assets) .  \nTHE SOLUTION  \nThe NIST Cybersecurity IT Asset Management Practice Guide is a proof-of-concept solution demonstrating commercially available technologies that can be implemented to track the location and configuration of networked devices and software across an enterprise. Our example solution spans traditional physical asset tracking, IT asset information, physical security, and vulnerability and compliance information. Users can now query one system and gain insight into their entire IT asset portfolio.  \nDRAFT  \nThe guide:  \n􀂄 maps security characteristics to guidance and best practices from NIST and other standards organizations including the PCI DSS  \n􀂄 provides  \n􀁸 a detailed example solution with capabilities that address security controls  \n􀁸 instructions for implementers and security engineers, including examples of all the necessary components for installation, configuration, and integration  \n􀂄 is modular and uses products that are readily available and interoperable with your existing IT infrastructure and investments  \nWhile we have used a suite of commercial products to address this challenge, this guide does not endorse these particular products, nor does it guarantee regulatory compliance. Your organization’s information security experts should identify the standards-based products that will best integrate with your existing tools and IT infrastructure. Your company can adopt this solution or one that adheres to these guidelines in whole, or you can use this guide as a starting point for tailoring and implementing parts of a solution.","cbCaicl0YXzcLE4E","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaicl0YXzcLE4E","pdf",496854,"English","# Executive Summary\n# The Challenge\n# The Solution\n# The Guide\n# Benefits\n# Share Your Feedback\n## Technology Partners","[{\"question\":\"What problem does the NIST IT asset management practice guide address for financial services?\",\"answer\":\"It addresses difficulty tracking diverse hardware and software and lacking centralized control, which makes vulnerability assessment and timely threat response challenging across complex enterprise environments.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the solution help organizations manage IT assets more securely?\",\"answer\":\"It provides a centralized, comprehensive view of networked hardware and software, mapping security characteristics to NIST and other standards guidance while enabling queries across the entire IT asset portfolio.\"},{\"question\":\"What benefits are highlighted for using the example solution?\",\"answer\":\"Benefits include faster security-alert responses, improved resilience by focusing on valuable assets, detailed auditor-ready system information, better insight into actual software license use, reduced help-desk response times, and a reduced attack surface through correct patching.\"}]","IT Asset Management - NIST SP 1800-5a Draft | PDF",1790077320]
