The National
Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has a critical role to play in
ensuring federal agencies comply with FISMA. NIST is also responsible for
establishing the categorization of information systems and information security
including standards for categorization of all information and systems, identification
of the types of information and systems to be included in each category, and minimum
information security requirements for information and systems in each category.
In February
2014, NIST released the Cybersecurity Framework to help organizations in any
industry to understand, communicate, and manage cybersecurity risks.
