National Cybersecurity Online Informative References (OLIR) Program: Two Draft NISTIRs Available for Comment

Summary:


NIST is seeking public comments on two draft NISTIRs for the National Cybersecurity Online Informative References (OLIR) Program. This Program is a NIST effort to facilitate subject matter experts in defining standardized Online Informative References (OLIRs), which are relationships between elements of their documents and elements of other documents like the NIST Cybersecurity Framework.  The draft reports focus on 1) OLIR program overview and uses (NISTIR 8278), and 2) submission guidance for OLIR developers (NISTIR 8278A).


The public comment period for both drafts is open through September 4th, 2020. See the publication details for a copy of the documents and instructions on submitting comments.


Details:

Based on feedback received from early adopters as well as discussions at the December 2019 OLIR workshop, this second draft includes:
