Discussion Draft of the NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 Core

In late April, NIST released a preliminary draft of the NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) 2.0 Core to support the development of the complete NIST CSF 2.0 Draft.

NIST seeks feedback as to whether the cybersecurity outcomes address current cybersecurity challenges faced by organizations, are aligned with existing practices and resources, and are responsive to the comments.

The Discussion Core reflects extensive feedback received thus far through a series of events:

• The 92 written responses to the January 2023 CSF 2.0 Concept Paper;

• The February 2023 In-Person Working Sessions (attended by approximately 250 participants in Rockville, MD);

Systems Engineering News

• The “Journey to the NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0” February 2023 Workshop #2 (attended virtually by more than 2,000 participants from 69 countries);

Recent events and updates in the field of systems engineering

• The “Journey to the NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0” August 2022 Workshop #1 (attended virtually by approximately 4,000 participants from 100 countries);

• The 134 written responses to the February 2022 NIST Cybersecurity RFI;

• Feedback from organizations that have leveraged the CSF over the years; and
