The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has unveiled a new metric that promises to revolutionize the way vulnerability management is prioritized. Likely Exploited Vulnerabilities (LEV) is a ranking designed to help organizations focus their efforts on the flaws that cybercriminals are actively using to perpetrate real-world attacks. Thousands of vulnerabilities are reported every year but only a small fraction is exploited in the wild.

As artificial intelligence continues to reshape industries, responsible governance has emerged as a business necessity. Organizations deploying AI face the challenge of maintaining innovation while mitigating risks related to bias, data privacy, security, and transparency. Two major frameworks – ISO 42001 and NIST AI Risk Management Framework (AI RMF)—have been developed to help businesses navigate this balance.

NIST Special Publication 800-53 is a cybersecurity and privacy framework developed by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). It provides a standardized set of security controls for federal information systems, covering everything from access control and incident response to system monitoring and supply chain risk management.

NIST compliance refers to adherence to the cybersecurity standards and guidelines developed by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), which are designed to help organizations manage and reduce cybersecurity risk.
