Fortifying Data Security: How Protegrity Aligns with NIST Standards

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is a U.S. government agency that develops and promotes standards, guidelines, and best practices to enhance information security and privacy. Recognized globally, NIST frameworks set the benchmark for building secure systems and managing cybersecurity risks.

Cybersecurity Leadership in Action: Fireblocks Reaches High NIST CSF Maturity Score

As someone who has spent decades working at the intersection of cybersecurity, innovation, and operational resilience, I’ve seen firsthand how critical it is to build trust in a rapidly evolving digital landscape. At Fireblocks, that trust is not just a goal—it’s a standard we continuously push ourselves to meet and exceed.

5 key differences between the NIST AI RMF and ISO 42001

The AI space is developing rapidly but is still largely uncontrolled. According to The State of Trust Report 2024, 62% businesses plan to invest more in AI security in the next 12 months. ‍ The good news is that AI security can now be better implemented with the help of many authoritative new AI standards and frameworks rolled out in the past few years. The aim with any of these standards is to remove the uncertainty around AI systems and ensure responsible implementation.

NIST AI RMF: Everything you need to know

The NIST AI Risk Management Framework (RMF) is one of the most advanced, globally accepted guidelines for the safe and responsible use of AI systems. If your organization implements AI in any capacity, adopting the NIST AI RMF can be a significant move toward future-proofing your operations and strengthening AI trustworthiness among customers.

Proactive cybersecurity leadership: Implementing the NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF)

According to a recent Gartner report, 88% of boards view cybersecurity as a business risk, not just an IT issue, underscoring the critical need for organizations to adopt robust, scalable frameworks to manage cybersecurity risks. In today’s rapidly evolving threat landscape, frameworks like the NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) are pivotal for safeguarding organizations from vulnerabilities while maintaining alignment with business objectives.

An easy to follow NIST Compliance Checklist

We have seen how cyber attacks have disrupted organisations and businesses repeatedly. Mitigating emerging threats is crucial more than ever, and many organisations are at the forefront of combating them. One such organisation is the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). NIST has released many Special Publications (SP) regulations, each containing guidelines for improving organisations’ security postures.

Understanding How NIST Shapes the Zero Trust Security Framework

Zero trust has become one of modern security’s most prominent strategies. Zero trust architecture is based on the fundamental idea that every network, user, and system must be verified consistently, instead of granting trust based on past access. Although zero trust is a commonly accepted practice today, it’s important to understand the pivotal role that the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) plays in defining zero trust architecture and other cybersecurity frameworks.

A Comprehensive Guide To The NIST Cybersecurity Framework

Businesses are turning to structured cybersecurity approaches like the NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) to protect data from breaches. Especially since the latter’s cost is expected to reach $10.5 million in 2025. The CSF’s core functions (Govern, Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond, Recover) can help mitigate digital risks.

New NIST Guidelines: Rethinking Passwords

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) issued a new perspective on password management policies, recognizing that many traditional practices used to ensure password security are no longer effective. The suggested practices to eliminate include not requiring periodic password changes, reducing restrictions on special characters, and discontinuing the use of security questions for account recovery.

The Only Guide For NIST 800-53 You Need: Controls List, Control Examples, Challenges, Implementation Tips

NIST, or the National Institute of Standards and Technology, is a U.S. federal government agency that creates frameworks and publications to manage organisations’ security requirements. NIST has released many Special Publications (SP), each containing several guidelines and security controls. One of the most comprehensive frameworks under NIST is the SP 800-53. Initially designed for federal agencies, this framework has become increasingly relevant for businesses of all sizes.
