In the NIST Cybersecurity Framework (version 1.1), which set of five core functions is correctly listed?

The NIST Cybersecurity Framework 1.1 core consists of Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond and Recover. These functions cover understanding risk, safeguarding assets, spotting events, acting on incidents and restoring services. Plan-Do-Check-Act is a different management cycle.

  2. BPlan, Do, Check, Act, Review
  3. CPrevent, Encrypt, Monitor, Report, Audit
  4. DAssess, Authorise, Detect, Contain, Restore

Explanation

The NIST Cybersecurity Framework 1.1 organises activities into five core functions: Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond and Recover. The Plan-Do-Check-Act option is the management-system cycle, not the NIST core. The other options are invented lists.
