Here in the Information Technology Laboratory (ITL) at NIST, we value the international engagement we have on our various cybersecurity and privacy efforts. Our programs and resources have benefitted from discussions with international stakeholders through increased communication and coordination, additional information sharing opportunities, and valuable idea exchange.
We encourage international participation at all stages in the development and evolution our programs. The feedback we receive—and lessons learned from international adaptation and implementation—helps us as we update and refine our resources. International engagement will remain an important focus for us and we welcome the chance to keep highlighting these perspectives that underline the important conversations we will continue to have with our partners around the world.
To help highlight this important ongoing engagement, we’ve collected a series of videos that show how our partners across the world are looking at various cybersecurity and privacy issues that we at NIST are also tracking. We value these insights and appreciate understanding how our partners are thinking about these issues (as well as how some have utilized our NIST resources).
If you are interested in submitting a perspectives video for this collection, please contact amy.mahn [at] nist.gov (amy[dot]mahn[at]nist[dot]gov). We look forward to continued conversations on these important topics!
These videos were not developed by NIST. Some include captioning from the points of contact, and NIST has included a closed captioning option for each video and English translation as needed.
