The National Initiative for Cybersecurity Education (NICE) has released Draft NIST Special Publication (SP) 800-181 Revision 1, Workforce Framework for Cybersecurity (NICE Framework). The NICE Framework is a fundamental reference for describing and sharing information about cybersecurity work in the form of Task Statements and as Work Roles that perform those tasks. In this revision, several updates have been made, including:
- an updated title to be more inclusive of the variety of workers who perform cybersecurity work,
- definition and normalization of key terms,
- principles that facilitate agility, flexibility, interoperability, and modularity,
- introduction of competencies,
- and more!
