Cyber threats are evolving at an unimaginable pace and autonomous cybersecurity is an effective way to handle these complex and increasingly sophisticated attacks.

A cybersecurity framework is a compilation of industry standards and best practices that help companies to manage cybersecurity risks.

Some popular cybersecurity frameworks include,

• NIST Cybersecurity Framwork
• ISO 27001 Information Security Management and ISO 27002 Information Security Controls
