In July 2022, NIST issued a Pre-Draft Call
for Comments on the Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) series
of publications. The Pre-Draft Call for Comments requested feedback from
interested parties to improve Special Publication (SP) 800-171, Protecting Controlled Unclassified
Information in Nonfederal Systems and Organizations, and its
supporting publications, SP 800-171A, SP 800-172, and SP
800-172A. Topics of interest included feedback about the use, effectiveness,
adequacy, and ongoing improvement of the CUI series.
A brief summary and
analysis of responses to the pre-draft call for comments is now
available. The summary includes observed trends in comments received,
the next steps for the planned update to the CUI Series, and opportunities to
engage.
