The National Cybersecurity Authority (NCA) published the Essential Cybersecurity Controls framework to help government organizations protect their systems, networks, and data against cyber threats. The regulations and guidelines mandate a common approach to information security across public sector organizations, third parties involved, and private companies responsible for critical national infrastructure to help maintain a high level of security confidentiality across the industry.
The regulation requires the organizations to not implement security measures as per the guidelines but also maintain documentation and evidence of implementing the security safeguards. Let us take a look at some of the documents and evidence requirements for NCA ECC Compliance. The below-given list can work as a checklist for your organizations to consider when complying with NCA ECC Compliance.

Conclusion
Having the listed documents in place is essential for organizations to prove that security threats have been addressed and that appropriate security measures have been implemented to mitigate any risks or cyber threats. Further, these documents work as evidence for organizations to provide to auditors for the Compliance Audit. These documents listed here can work as a compliance checklist that can also help organizations put in place the technologies, processes, and people appropriate for achieving, and sustaining compliance while also managing risk.
But, having this list is just about half the work done since organizations will need effective appropriate identification of applicable documentation, identification of the right templates and appropriate expertise to ensure that ground realities and organizational expectations are reflected in the documentation set.
