The CyberSN Taxonomy
Fostering a Shared Cybersecurity Language Between Employers and Professionals

--- Aligned and Extended Upon the NICE Framework ---
By aligning with the NICE Framework, we ensure that our taxonomy reflects the latest in cybersecurity education, training, and workforce development standards. CyberSN's Taxonomy then takes it a step further to encompass all areas of cybersecurity.
Adopting a taxonomy based on the NICE Framework and extending it to cover the entire cybersecurity landscape promotes standardization across the industry. This approach streamlines the language used to describe cybersecurity work, facilitating clearer communication and understanding among stakeholders.
