One Common Controls Framework To Rule Them All
The Secure Controls Framework® (SCF) is an innovative solution designed to streamline enterprise compliance by integrating security, compliance, and resilience into a single, cohesive metaframework. This approach addresses the costly challenge of managing separate, isolated programs for each legal and regulatory requirement. By unifying these elements, the SCF simplifies compliance efforts, reduces redundancy, and enhances organizational efficiency.
Not familiar with the SCF? A great place to start is with downloading the START HERE GUIDE to gain a solid understanding of what the SCF is and how to use it. The SCF focuses on internal controls, which are security, compliance and resilience-related policies, standards, procedures, technologies, and processes designed to provide reasonable assurance that business objectives will be achieved and undesired events will be prevented, detected, and corrected.
Common Controls Framework®
The SCF currently holds the rights to the Common Controls Framework® servicemark. The domains commoncontrolsframework.com and common-controls-framework.com both redirect to the SCF. This distinction is unique among all cybersecurity frameworks and furthers the claim that the it is THE common controls framework.
Rosetta Stone Approach To Secure, Compliant & Resilient Capabilities
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Suspendisse varius enim in eros elementum tristique. Duis cursus, mi quis viverra ornare, eros dolor interdum nulla, ut commodo diam libero vitae erat. Aenean faucibus nibh et justo cursus id rutrum lorem imperdiet. Nunc ut sem vitae risus tristique posuere.
Built on the principle that controls are the foundation of any security program, the SCF provides a single, authoritative control catalog that maps to every major cybersecurity and data privacy law, regulation and framework simultaneously. The SCF serves as the “Rosetta Stone” of secure, compliant and resilient capabilities. Organizations can implement SCF controls once and inherit alignment with other frameworks that matter to them.
Security, Compliance & Resilience Management System (SCRMS)
Our goal is for companies to be secure, compliant and resilient! Those are not just words, since we put a significant amount of time and energy into developing actionable guidance to make that a reality. One major component of that concept is the Security, Compliance & Resilience Management System (SCRMS) - a must-read for any CISO or GRC Director. The SCF can serve as a foundational component for your company to build secure, compliant and resilient capabilities that are able to withstand external scrutiny (e.g., regulators, class action lawsuits, insurers, etc.).
The SCF developed the SCRMS, which is a comprehensive implementation system that treats controls as the central nexus of cybersecurity and data privacy operations. Unlike traditional GRC which is often process-centric, the SCRMS is controls-centric. In the SCRMS, controls are viewed as the nexus , or central pivoting point, for an organization’s cybersecurity program. Not just policies and standards map to controls, but procedures, metrics, threats, and risks as well. This ties everything together into a cohesive, operationalizable framework that any CISO or GRC Director can implement.
The SCF focuses on internal controls. These are the cybersecurity and privacy-related policies, standards, procedures, technologies and associated processes that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that business objectives will be achieved and undesired events will be prevented, detected and corrected.
