Cybersecurity in a Hyper-Connected World: What's New with NIST 800-53

The federal IT environment has evolved dramatically in recent years. In particular, networks have become increasingly complex as more and more devices have been connected and the line between the physical and cyber world has blurred, creating a much larger attack surface. With that in mind, NIST has made significant revisions to SP 800-53, which provides a catalog of security controls for all federal information systems.

In this webcast, Ron Ross, a NIST Fellow and a leading voice for cybersecurity in the federal government, will discuss the key changes to 800-53 and how they can help agencies do a better job of protecting their critical systems.

Some key takeaways include:

  • Specific changes that are being made to 800-53
  • How those changes will affect how agencies manage security and privacy
  • Impact on other NIST standards and guidelines, including the use of Cybersecurity Framework
