The “Cybersecurity Framework” led by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has proved to be a valuable tool of cybersecurity risk management. Now, with privacy in the public spotlight and discussions about policy options expanding, NIST is embarking on a collaborative effort to develop a NIST “Privacy Framework: An Enterprise Risk Management Tool.”

On September 24, the Center for Technology Innovation at Brookings will host experts for a half-day forum on the development of this framework and privacy risk management. Through keynotes and panel discussions, experts will share their perspectives on the current and future state of privacy practices from both an implementation and policy perspective, as well as the potential domestic and international impact of this privacy framework. Attendees will learn directly from NIST leadership about their plans for the framework development, hear industry responses, and explore the issues presented by a framework approach to privacy.

After each panel, speakers will take audience questions. CDT’s Michelle Richardson will join the “What does risk management mean in the context of privacy?” conversation from 9:45 AM – 10:45 AM EDT.
