Privacy Controls Workshop

Next Steps for NIST Special Publication 800-53, Appendix J

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the Department of Transportation (DOT) will co-host a public workshop to gather input on the privacy controls in Appendix J of NIST Special Publication 800-53, Revision 4. The workshop will explore the effectiveness and challenges of applying the current privacy controls in 800-53 and whether changes should be made in the publication’s fifth revision. Panelists and attendees will participate in facilitated discussions on topics including potential amendments to the privacy control families, broader guidance on the relationship between the privacy and security controls, and the need for additional NIST guidance on the implementation of controls in privacy risk management processes to support more effective privacy programs.

Agenda and Discussion Materials: NIST and DOT draft discussion materials and agenda will be made public in advance of the event.

Who Should Attend: System design and privacy engineers, privacy officers, senior agency officials for privacy (SAOPs) and privacy subject matter experts should attend this interactive workshop. Public and private sector attendees and academics welcome.
