NIST: Computer Security Resource Center Glossary

NIST has over the years built up an amazing library of resources on seriously hardened security mechanisms. In fact, I think it is not going too far to claim that NIST is to computer security what IEEE is to physical encoding. This glossary is remarkably complete. Good share, I for one find it interesting. If anyone wants to get into serious computer security, reading even the introductory material within some of the more important documents contains plenty of enlightenment.

anyone have recommended stacks/tooling to be able to integrate security day 1 in development. (CI/CD, continuous monitoring etc all geared towards NIST & ATO?)

Looking to impeded business/mission feature development as little as possible, but security is just as important.

...This is here why?

Why did you post such a pointless comment here?

In case it wasn't obvious, someone presumably found it interesting -- and, in case you weren't aware, you aren't required to click every link or like every submission.

That was rude. My question was for the users who put it there, I want to know what it is they find so interesting about a glossary.

The link could arguably be changed to the relevant press release.
