Managed Services Provider Offering Based on the NIST Cybersecurity Framework
At 1 Accord Technologies, we believe cybersecurity should be structured, proactive, and aligned with proven industry standards. That’s why our Managed Services Provider offerings are built on the NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF)—a globally recognized model for protecting organizations against evolving cyber threats.
Whether you’re a small business seeking to strengthen your defenses or an enterprise needing ongoing compliance support, our services provide the strategy, tools, and expertise to secure your environment and keep your business running safely.
Why the NIST Cybersecurity Framework?
The NIST CSF provides a common language and set of best practices for managing cybersecurity risk. By aligning our managed services with this framework, we ensure your security program is:
- Comprehensive – covering prevention, detection, response, and recovery.
- Scalable – adaptable to your organization’s size, industry, and risk profile.
- Proven – based on tested and trusted security practices recognized worldwide.
