NIST had a number of workshops dedicated to creating this framework. NIST was very hopeful they could receive the amount of quality feedback which made their prior Cybersecurity Framework so wildly popular and successful. I had the good fortune of attending the second workshop, and it's quite fascinating to see the changes since their initial working draft. The biggest changes I see come in the Core Functions. There have always been five, but some of them were significantly altered from the draft to v1.0: 1) Identify -> Identify 2) Protect -> Govern 3) Control -> Control 4) Inform -> Communicate 5) Respond -> Protect If I remember right, much of the feedback NIST received at the workshop centered around the difference (or lack thereof) from the Cybersecurity Framework. The Venn diagram on page 7 of the Privacy Framework absolutely demonstrates that they recognized this lack of difference, made modifications, and show how the frameworks complement each other. Overall, kudos to NIST for producing these frameworks. Issues of cybersecurity and privacy are fraught with nuance, and these documents are quite useful in providing "laypersons" with an informed way to reason about these issues. ---- Prior workshops: https://www.nist.gov/news-events/events/2018/10/kicking-nist-privacy-framework-workshop-1 https://www.nist.gov/news-events/events/2018/10/kicking-nist... https://www.nist.gov/news-events/events/2019/05/drafting-nist-privacy-framework-workshop-2 https://www.nist.gov/news-events/events/2019/05/drafting-nis... https://www.nist.gov/news-events/events/2019/07/getting-v10-nist-privacy-framework-workshop-3 https://www.nist.gov/news-events/events/2019/07/getting-v10-...
