NIST plots biggest ever reform of Cybersecurity Framework

The US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is revising its Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) and seeking public review on its concept paper for CSF 2.0. Due to changes in cybersecurity standards, technology and risks, the updated framework will address the needs of small businesses and higher education institutions, enhance international collaboration, focus more on supply chain risk management and include more practical guidance on its application. CSF 2.0 will also increase discussions about cybersecurity risk among senior managers and technologists.
