International initiatives the NIST cyber security framework and the U.S examples The NIST represent a global reference model at worldwide level to define a standard approach to strengthen cyber security especially within the business community. A recent example of how NIST is defining cyber security standard approaches is the 2015 Italian Cyber Security Report,which is based on the reference "Framework for Improving Critical Infrastructure Cybersecurity" developed by NIST but expanded and updated to reflect the Italian context.19 NIST on the takes several international collaborations including its risk management framework. For example, it has worked with the Cloud Security Alliance EU and Global, the SPECS project and SLA- Ready on extensions to its risk management framework and cloud security SLAs. The NIST Cyber security Framework20 was developed as a flexible framework of security standards, guidelines and best practices for federal agencies to build upon. Since the first release in 2014, there has been a rapid adoption of the framework. Within the federal government, 82% of agencies21 are either fully or partially adopting the NIST framework, perhaps more telling is that 53% of organizations22 outside the federal government have adopted NIST standards. The core functions of the cyber security framework focus on identifying risks, protecting data or deterring threads, detecting threats, incident response and recovery planning. Each of these functions lay out a clear roadmap for organizations of any industry to plan a cohesive risk-based strategy around. The primary agencies conducting cyber security research within the U.S. Federal Government and internationally include: the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), the Department of Energy (DOE), the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Activity (IARPA), the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), the National Security Agency (NSA), the National Science Foundation (NSF), the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD), and the Department of Defense Service research organizations in the Air Force, Army, and Navy. No single agency addresses all the priority areas in the Strategic Plan, rather the many different agency efforts, with guidance from the Strategic Plan and coordination through the Subcommittee on Networking and Information Technology Research and Development (NITRD), enable collective progress towards the Plan’s goals. 21 xxxx://xxx.xxxx.xxx/cyberfram...
