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.
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.
The NIST Cybersecurity Framework is meant to be a living document, meaning it will be updated and improved over time to keep up with changes in technology and cybersecurity threats, as well as to integrate best-practices and lessons learned. Since releasing version 1.1 in 2018, stakeholders have provided feedback that the CSF needed to be updated.
In 2003 FISMA Project, Now the Risk Management Project, launched and published requirements such as FIPS 199, FIPS 200, and NIST Special Publications 800–53, 800–59, and 800–6. Then NIST Special Publications 800–37, 800–39, 800–171, 800-53A.
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 ...
NIST performs its statutory responsibilities through the Computer Security Division of the Information Technology Laboratory. [4] NIST develops standards, metrics, tests, and validation programs to promote, measure, and validate the security in information systems and services. NIST hosts the following: FISMA implementation project [1]
