If you find the NIST CyberSecurity Framework, ISO 27001 etc are too massive & overwhelming to follow as they contain too many controls, maybe it is good to start small with this CSSF.

In order to protect your business, you need to secure your business. Easier said than done, right?

The goal of the Common Sense Security Framework (CSSF) is to help business owners identify those fundamental controls they need to have in place in order to protect the systems and applications on which their business relies.

The CSSF identifies seven (7) areas that require protection, along with three (3) of the most effective, useful controls in each area. The end results is a list of twenty-one (21) questions that every business owner needs to answer in order to have a fundamental understanding of whether or not his or her business is exposed.
