A security architect is designing a new cybersecurity program based on NIST CSF 2.0. The architect wants to ensure that the program is resilient and can adapt to changing threats. Which approach best reflects the continuous improvement nature of the Core Functions?

Implement the functions in a linear sequence and then stop.

Prioritize the Protect function over all others because prevention is the most important.

Use the functions only as a reporting framework for the board.

Regularly review and update each function based on lessons learned and changes in the threat landscape.

What is the primary purpose of the Core Functions in the NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0?

To serve as a compliance checklist for regulatory audits

To replace all other cybersecurity frameworks and standards

To offer a high-level, strategic view of an organization's cybersecurity activities and lifecycle

To provide a detailed set of technical controls for every possible threat
