The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) will host a series of workshops aimed at developing a voluntary comprehensive cybersecurity framework that will apply across sixteen critical infrastructure sectors. The framework must be accomplished in preliminary form by October and finalized by February 2014. NIST has placed a large emphasis in the draft framework on reaching the very senior levels of management, including CEOs and boards of director. Many cybersecurity experts say that reaching that top level of management is one of the biggest challenges to ensuring adequate cybersecurity protection of critical infrastructure.”]
