C2M2 and the NIST Cyber Framework Applying DOE NIST Cyber Security Framework Guidance

In February 2013, the President released Executive Order (EO) 13636 which called for NIST to develop a voluntary Cyber Security Framework for Critical Infrastructure Sectors. The Framework was to provide a, “prioritized, flexible, repeatable, performance-based, and cost effect approach” to manage cyber security risk. This EO led to the release of NIST’s Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) in February of 2014.
