National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)
It has become increasingly salient to understand the terminology associated with computer information security. In 2011, The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) released a revised edition of their 2006 publication NIST’s Glossary of Key Information Security Terms
The glossary includes most of the terms in the NIST publications. It also contains nearly all of the terms and definitions from CNSSI-4009 [Committee for National Security Systems Instruction]. The glossary provides a central resource of terms and definitions most commonly used in NIST information security publications and in CNSS information assurance publications.”
