About
What is SebDB?
SebDB is a practical tool to help you:
Understand which behaviors influence specific risks
Prioritize behaviors by urgency and category
Align behaviors to well-known frameworks such as the NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) and the MITRE ATT&CK Framework
Design targeted interventions for your campaigns and programs
Track behavioral changes and easily explain their impact
Maintained by a global network of researchers and practitioners, SebDB is open, transparent, and always evolving.
How to start
Get started with SebDB
SebDB helps you make smarter decisions using three powerful starting points: risk, behavior, and alignment to a cybersecurity framework.
Start by choosing where to begin:
Reduce a risk
Reducing impact is one of the most effective ways to manage risk. Impact is the real-world harmful or undesirable result of a security risk (i.e., the result if a risk materializes).
Pick an impact (e.g., data compromise, account compromise) to see which behaviors influence it, and where to act first.
Start with an impact
Explore a behavior
A security behavior is focused on the everyday actions and decisions of technology users.
Search or browse behaviors to see why it matters, what it affects, and which impacts it can influence.

Align to a cybersecurity framework
Do you need to report or audit? SebDB behaviors are already mapped to NIST CSF and MITRE ATT&CK frameworks, with clear justification for every link.
Explore the mappings to see how behaviors support your control sets.
