[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.
In 2021 NIST released Security Measures for "EO-Critical Software" Use Under Executive Order (EO) 14028 to outline security measures intended to better protect the use of deployed EO-critical software in agencies’ operational environments. [14]
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]
In 2008, NIST withdrew the FIPS 55-3 database. [7] This database included 5-digit numeric place codes for cities, towns, and villages, or other centers of population in the United States. The codes were assigned alphabetically to places within each state, and as a result changed frequently in order to maintain the alphabetical sorting.

Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA) Asymmetric algorithm for digital signatures FIPS PUB 186-4: Use Curve P-384 for all classification levels. Secure Hash Algorithm (SHA) Algorithm for computing a condensed representation of information FIPS PUB 180-4
The Security Content Automation Protocol (SCAP) is a method for using specific standards to enable automated vulnerability management, measurement, and policy compliance evaluation of systems deployed in an organization, including e.g., FISMA (Federal Information Security Management Act, 2002) compliance.
NIST Special Publication 800-37 Rev. 1 was published in February 2010 under the title "Guide for Applying the Risk Management Framework to Federal Information Systems: A Security Life Cycle Approach". This version described six steps in the RMF lifecycle. Rev. 1 was withdrawn on December 20, 2019 and superseded by SP 800-37 Rev. 2. [1]
The Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) is an assessment framework and assessor certification program designed to increase the trust in measures of compliance to a variety of standards published by the National Institute of Standards and Technology.
