In today's digital landscape, safeguarding sensitive information is critical. The NIST Cybersecurity
Framework (CSF) provides a strong foundation for organizations to manage cybersecurity risks, and
ID.AM-1 (Physical Device & System Inventory) is a key component of this strategy.
ID.AM-1 focuses on establishing a comprehensive inventory of identities (users, devices, services,
etc.) within your organization. This step is crucial because:
• Improved Security: Knowing who and what has access to your systems enables better control
and reduces the risk of unauthorized access.
• Increased Visibility: A clear inventory helps you monitor and manage assets effectively,
ensuring the right access is granted to the right people.
• Efficiency & Compliance: Helps streamline access management processes and ensures compliance
with regulations, such as GDPR, PCI DSS and HIPAA.
Adopting the NIST CSF Control Set strengthens your organization’s foundation for a secure and
resilient cybersecurity posture.
