Background:

In February 2013, President Obama issued Executive Order 13636, "Improving Critical Infrastructure Cybersecurity," which called on the Department of Commerce's National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to develop a voluntary risk-based Cybersecurity Framework for the nation's critical infrastructure—that is, a set of industry standards and best practices to help organizations identify, assess, and manage cybersecurity risks. NIST issued the resulting Framework https://www.nist.gov/cyberframework in February 2014.
