The NICE Framework is a fundamental resource to help in the development and support of a workforce capable of meeting an organization’s cybersecurity needs. It provides organizations with a common, consistent language to categorize and describe cybersecurity work via Task, Knowledge, and Skill (TKS) statements that describe the work to be done and what is needed to complete that work.
It further provides ways to use these building blocks in defined Competencies and Work Roles. By doing so, it enables consistent organizational and sector communication for cybersecurity education, training, and workforce development.
