'ZDNET Recommends': What exactly does it mean?
ZDNET's recommendations are based on many hours of testing, research, and comparison shopping. We gather data from the best available sources, including vendor and retailer listings as well as other relevant and independent reviews sites. And we pore over customer reviews to find out what matters to real people who already own and use the products and services we’re assessing.
When you click through from our site to a retailer and buy a product or service, we may earn affiliate commissions. This helps support our work, but does not affect what we cover or how, and it does not affect the price you pay. Neither ZDNET nor the author are compensated for these independent reviews. Indeed, we follow strict guidelines that ensure our editorial content is never influenced by advertisers.
ZDNET's editorial team writes on behalf of you, our reader. Our goal is to deliver the most accurate information and the most knowledgeable advice possible in order to help you make smarter buying decisions on tech gear and a wide array of products and services. Our editors thoroughly review and fact-check every article to ensure that our content meets the highest standards. If we have made an error or published misleading information, we will correct or clarify the article. If you see inaccuracies in our content, please report the mistake via this form.

Cybersecurity has become more central to IT roles, and the wider public view of technology as ransomware proliferates and data breaches become more common. Whether IT specialist or generalists, it's useful knowledge and can help build your career.
The United States government uses the Risk Management Framework to protect privacy, manage security, and keep trusted materials in the supply chain. Knowing how it works can provide more effective tools for these challenges and helps organizations working with the government better understand their process.
The course is presented by iCollege. Founded in 2003 as iExpertSkills, in the years since iCollege has become one of the top online training academies, with students in over 120 countries.
Over the 57 lectures, more than 21 hours total, the iCollege team breaks out the Risk Management Framework in the context of cybersecurity in detail. The framework was designed to navigate the web of regulations, laws, and standards that come into play when an organization is working to secure its network.
It starts by examining how to prepare your organization for streamlining and better managing its cybersecurity infrastructure and risk assessment, categorizing systems and information. From there, select NIST 800-53 controls are explored and discussed.
After choosing your controls, you'll learn about implementation, assessment, control, and evaluation under the framework. The course is available with lifetime access and is available on desktop and mobile platforms.
Cybersecurity is becoming more of a government focus, with the founding of the CISA Cybersecurity Advisory Committee in June and rising awareness of risks both inside and outside the government. Learning the RMF will help you stay on top of increasingly complex needs and offer you more tools to protect your organization.
