Data Governance and Management (DGM) Profile
The DGM Profile seeks to address data governance and management challenges and offer a means to effectively demonstrate complementary use of NIST frameworks and resources.
Stakeholders have expressed a desire for more support in using NIST frameworks and resources together. Because data governance is the starting point for many organizations seeking the benefits of data while managing privacy, cybersecurity, and AI risk, we are developing a joint NIST frameworks DGM Profile. The DGM Profile is focused on the NIST Privacy Framework, NIST Cybersecurity Framework, and NIST AI Risk Management Framework.

DGM Profile Working Sessions Schedule
Building on the valuable stakeholder feedback received during the Ready, Set, Update! Privacy Framework 1.1 + DGM Profile Workshop, we are hosting a series of public working sessions to further shape the joint NIST Frameworks DGM Profile. This next phase in the DGM Profile development offers stakeholders the opportunity to engage in collaborative discussions to shape the content of the DGM Profile Initial Public Draft.
Working sessions are virtual and consist of both guided and open discussions.
Working Session 1: Data Governance and Management Activities
Working Session 1 meetings were held between September 10 - 12, 2024. NIST will use stakeholder feedback from Working Session 1 meetings to inform development of the Data Governance and Management activities in the DGM Profile.
