The current NIST privacy framework followed by a cybersecurity framework – Framework for Improving Critical Infrastructure released in 2018.

Same as cybersecurity framework, A privacy framework developed of 3 parts: Core, Profiles, and Implementation Tiers.

The Core Tier focuses on the executive level to implementation and operation level that handles the important privacy protection activities.

Profiles focusing the priority on best meet organizational privacy values, mission or business needs, and risks.

How to Use the Privacy Framework

When the Privacy Framework used as a risk management tool, it assists an organization to optimize beneficial uses of data and the development of innovative systems, products, and services.

The privacy framework will answer the fundamental question How are we considering the impacts on individuals as we develop our systems, products, and services?”

According to the NIST framework “The decision about how to apply it is left to the implementing organization. For example, an organization may already have robust privacy risk management processes but may use the Core’s five Functions as a streamlined way to analyze and articulate any gaps.”

The variety of ways in which the Privacy Framework can be used by organizations:

  1. Mapping to Informative References
  2. Strengthening Accountability
  3. Establishing or Improving a Privacy Program
  4. Applying the System Development LifeCycle
  5. Using within the Data Processing Ecosystem
  6. Informing Buying Decisions
