The Identify function provides foundational activities for the effective use of the Cybersecurity Framework, because it assists in developing an organizational understanding of managing cybersecurity risk to systems, people, assets, data, and capabilities12. This understanding enables an organization to focus and prioritize its efforts, consistent with its risk management strategy and business needs12. The Identify function includes outcome categories such as Asset Management, Business Environment, Governance, Risk Assessment, Risk Management Strategy, and Supply Chain Risk Management12.
