The National
Initiative for Cybersecurity Education (NICE) has released Draft NIST Special Publication (SP)
800-181 Revision 1, Workforce Framework for Cybersecurity (NICE Framework).

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!
