The NCSC provides standards and methods to improve cyber resilience: the Cybersecurity and Resilience Method (CSRM) for process security, ICT minimum standards for critical infrastructure and, in future, an assessment tool that will enable organisations to measure their cyber resilience maturity levels.
Switzerland’s economy and society. By combining well-established processes, minimum technical requirements and modern assessment tools, the NCSC has created a uniform basis for identifying and managing digital risks.
