NIST 800-53 Revision 5
Starter Policies
NIST Special Publication 800-53 Revision 5 is a comprehensive set of security and privacy controls developed by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to help U.S. federal agencies and organizations protect their information systems and sensitive data. The publication provides a wide range of controls, covering areas such as access control, configuration management, incident response, and risk assessment, which can be tailored to meet individual organizations' specific needs and risk profiles. NIST 800-53 Rev 5 introduces a new approach to managing security and privacy controls, emphasizing the integration of these controls into the system development life cycle and using continuous monitoring to maintain ongoing protection. The framework is closely aligned with other NIST publications, such as the Cybersecurity Framework and the Risk Management Framework, enabling organizations to develop a comprehensive and cohesive approach to cybersecurity. While primarily designed for U.S. federal agencies, private sector organizations widely adopt NIST 800-53 Rev 5 as a best practice for securing their information systems and data.
