NIST Special Publication 800-53 is an information security standard that provides a catalog of privacy and security controls for information systems.Originally intended for U.S. federal agencies except those related to national security, since the 5th revision it is a standard for general usage.
[1] [3] The RMF steps link to several other NIST standards and guidelines, including NIST Special Publication 800-53. The RMF process includes the following steps: Prepare to execute the RMF by establishing a context and setting priorities for managing security and privacy risk at both organizational and system levels.
A new Function, Govern, has been added to provide organizational context and the roles and responsibilities associated with developing a cybersecurity governance model. There is also an additional category in this Function focused on cybersecurity supply chain risk management.
Published in September 2006, the NIST SP 800-92 Guide to Computer Security Log Management serves as a key document within the NIST Risk Management Framework to guide what should be auditable. As indicated by the absence of the term "SIEM", the document was released before the widespread adoption of SIEM technologies.
Compliance with SP 800-171 is often a prerequisite for participating in federal contracts. [31] For the secure development of software, NIST introduced SP 800-218, known as the "Secure Software Development Framework (SSDF)." This document emphasizes integrating security throughout all stages of the software development lifecycle, from design to ...
Other agencies, particularly NIST, have taken on the role of supporting security for commercial and sensitive but unclassified applications. NSA's certification of the unclassified NIST-selected AES algorithm for classified use "in NSA-approved systems" suggests that, in the future, NSA may use more non-classified algorithms. The KG-245A and KG ...
NIST Enterprise Architecture Model (NIST EA Model) is a late-1980s reference model for enterprise architecture. It defines an enterprise architecture [ 1 ] by the interrelationship between an enterprise's business, information, and technology environments.
Security Functional Requirements (SFRs) – specify individual security functions which may be provided by a product. The Common Criteria presents a standard catalogue of such functions. For example, a SFR may state how a user acting a particular role might be authenticated. The list of SFRs can vary from one evaluation to the next, even if two ...
