In this episode, Ross B. Nodurft, Senior Director of Cybersecurity Services at Venable LLP, Alexander Botting, Senior Director of International Cybersecurity Services at Venable LLP, and Amy Mahn, an international policy specialist in the United States Department of Commerce National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Applied Cybersecurity Division, discuss cybersecurity risk management, especially in relation to standards-setting. They begin by describing their work, including an ongoing series of public events organized by NIST and the Center for Cybersecurity Policy and Law, bringing together cybersecurity professionals to discuss needs and best practices in managing cybersecurity risk. They explain how NIST develops standards for managing cybersecurity risk, and why those standards have been successful. And they reflect on the future of the standards-setting process.
