# Resilience

A framework like the NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) helps drive more mature security programs. With the NIST CSF, you can easily and consistently assess where you are today and where you want your cybersecurity to be.

NIST CSF helps organizations measure and report on their respective security programs. The framework gives security professionals a standardized way to measure and talk about their security maturity, and the progress they are making on those efforts. Whether you are making the case for additional security budgets or presenting to your board of directors, the NIST CSF gives you a tangible and effective way to do that.

We have created a guide to provide a quick tour of the framework, an easy-to-use tool for rating your organization, and an explanation of how Expel can help you meet your goals and improve your ratings.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.expel.io/workbench-reference/tools/resilience.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
