NIST CSF is a voluntary American framework for managing cyber risks (Identify / Protect / Detect / Respond / Recover). In Israel it's not legally mandatory, but is adopted in practice by many companies — especially those working with American clients/government — and influences Bank of Israel and National Cyber Directorate guidelines. CBE guides you through the entire process.
CBE specializes in guiding and certifying organizations for the NIST CSF standard, tailoring the management system to the organization's needs.

NIST CSF (Cybersecurity Framework) is a voluntary framework developed by the American NIST for managing cyber risks. Version 2.0 (2024) adds the Govern function and expands the scope.
The framework is built from 6 core functions: Govern, Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond and Recover — and provides a common language for managing cyber risks across the organization.
In Israel, NIST CSF is not legally mandatory, but is adopted in practice by many companies — especially those working with American clients or government — and influences Bank of Israel and National Cyber Directorate guidelines.
