NIST Cybersecurity Framework: Don't Underestimate It - InformationWeek

quoted

The framework was issued at the direction of the White House in February under Executive Order 13636. The order tasked the NIST to develop a "set of standards, methodologies, procedures, and processes that align policy, business, and technological approaches to address cyber risks."

The NIST has conducted four cybersecurity workshops, and it consulted with more than 3,000 individuals and organizations on best-practices for securing IT infrastructure prior to releasing the framework. That level of consultation in creating the framework -- and the broad industry input -- support the notion that the framework will be recognized as an industry standard.
