The NIST Cybersecurity Framework (version 1.1) organises its core activities into five functions. Which sequence lists exactly those five functions?

The NIST Cybersecurity Framework version 1.1 core has five functions: Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond and Recover. Plan-Do-Check-Act is a separate improvement cycle used in management system standards, and the other sequences are not part of the NIST framework.

  2. BPlan, Do, Check, Act, Review
  3. CPrevent, Encrypt, Monitor, Audit, Report
  4. DIdentify, Authenticate, Authorise, Account, Archive

The NIST CSF 1.1 core consists of Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond and Recover. Plan-Do-Check-Act is the continual improvement cycle used in management system standards, not the NIST core functions.
