+Quantum Security Awareness

Quantum Security Awareness

Description

Mechanisms exist to deliver differentiated quantum security awareness and training content to:
(1) General workforce;
(2) Technical roles; and
(3) Leadership roles.

Possible Solutions & Considerations

Micro-Small Business (<10 staff) / BLS Firm Size Classes 1-2

∙ Brief awareness of quantum risk to encryption in annual security training (CISA/NIST resources)

Small Business (10-49 staff) / BLS Firm Size Classes 3-4

∙ Include quantum threat awareness in annual security training
∙ NIST PQC awareness resources (https://csrc.nist.gov/pqc)

Medium Business (50-249 staff) / BLS Firm Size Classes 5-6

∙ Differentiated quantum security awareness content by role
∙ General workforce awareness module
∙ Technical team PQC training

Large Business (250-999 staff) / BLS Firm Size Classes 7-8

∙ Role-specific quantum security awareness program (workforce, technical, leadership)
∙ Integration with annual security awareness platform

Enterprise (> 1,000 staff) / BLS Firm Size Class 9

∙ Enterprise quantum security awareness program
∙ Differentiated content for workforce, technical, and leadership roles
∙ Annual training refresh aligned to NIST and regulatory updates
∙ Integration with Learning Management System (LMS)

SCR-CMM

Level 0 Not Performed

Practices are non-existent, based on the inability to demonstrate an implemented and operational capability. A reasonable person would conclude the control is not being performed.

Level 1 Performed Informally

SCR-CMM Level 1 criteria definitions are not available for this control:
▪ A reasonable person would conclude this control requires a structured process.
▪ At this level of maturity, the "ad hoc" nature of performing a capability informally would indicate the intent of the control is not met due to a lack of consistency and formality.

Level 2 Planned Tracked

Quantum Security (QTS) capabilities are requirements-driven, but are not standardized across the entity (e.g., local/regional level consistency). Capability criteria associated with this control reasonably expect the following criteria to exist:
▪ Policies and standards associated with QTS domain capabilities are formally documented and centrally-managed by the entity.
▪ IT and/or cybersecurity personnel work with business stakeholders and process owners to appropriately scope and reasonably implement cybersecurity and data protection controls associated with QTS domain capabilities to address applicable statutory, regulatory and/or contractual requirements for Technology Assets, Applications, Services and/or Data (TAASD).

Level 3 Well Defined

Security Awareness & Training (SAT) capabilities are standardized across the entity for applicability to People, Processes, Technologies, Data and/or Facilities (PPTDF) to ensure consistency for Technology Assets, Applications, Services and/or Data (TAASD). Capability criteria associated with this control reasonably expect the following criteria to exist:
▪ Policies and standards associated with SAT domain capabilities are formally documented and centrally-managed by the entity's Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC) team, or similar function.
▪ Standardized Operating Procedures (SOP) associated with SAT domain capabilities are well-documented and kept current by process owners.
▪ A security awareness & training team, or similar function, is appropriately staffed and supported to implement and maintain SAT domain capabilities.
▪ Technology is leveraged to enhance the efficiency and accuracy of security awareness and training management (e.g., Computer Based Learning (CBL) solutions).
▪ The entity's Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC) team, or similar function, works with business stakeholders and process owners to appropriately scope and reasonably implement cybersecurity and data protection controls associated with SAT domain capabilities to address Minimum Compliance Requirements (MCR) (e.g., applicable statutory, regulatory and/or contractual requirements) and Discretionary Security Requirements (DSR) (e.g., entity-required controls).
▪ An implemented and operational capability exists to deliver differentiated quantum security awareness and training content to:
(1) General workforce;
(2) Technical roles; and
(3) Leadership roles.

Level 4 Quantitatively Controlled

Utilize SCR-CMM Level 3 criteria definitions:
▪ There are no defined Level 4 criteria, since it is reasonable to assume a quantitatively-controlled process is not necessary to operationalize this control.
▪ While it may be possible to develop “metrics-driven” capabilities for this control, the criteria would be organization-specific to define.

Level 5 Continuously Improving

Utilize SCR-CMM Level 3 or Level 4 (if available) criteria definitions:
▪ There are no defined Level 5 criteria, since it is reasonable to assume a continuously-improving process is not necessary to operationalize this control.
▪ Level 5 capabilities should be considered “world-class” where the control builds on Level 4 capabilities, but are continuously improving through Artificial Intelligence (AI) and/or Machine Learning (ML) technologies.
▪ While it may be possible to develop responsive capabilities for this control through the use of AI and/or ML technologies, the criteria would be organization-specific to define.
