Summary
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has released a draft Cybersecurity Framework Profile for Artificial Intelligence to support organizations in managing cybersecurity risks associated with AI systems. This framework addresses critical focus areas: "secure," "defend," and "thwart," which reflect the need for robust cybersecurity strategies as AI becomes more integrated into organizational operations. By facilitating a structured approach to applying existing cybersecurity practices to AI concerns, the profile aims to help healthcare professionals and other sectors enhance their defenses against AI-driven cyber threats. With contributions from over 6,500 stakeholders, the framework underscores the importance of collective expertise in navigating the complexities of AI-related cybersecurity challenges.
