''The NCCoE's mission'': to expand the use of a secure cyber infrastructure that inspires technological innovation and fosters economic growth.<ref>[https://www.nccoe.nist.gov/about-the-center/strategy NCCOE Strategy]</ref><br/>
 +
 
 +
''The NCCoE's strategy'': to accelerate the business sector's adoption of standards-based security technology by consulting with IT practitioners to identify the most pressing issues, generating technical descriptions of those problems, matching solutions with NIST standards and best practices, making the problem descriptions as broadly applicable as possible, and inviting technology vendors to collaborate on product modules of end-to-end example solutions.<ref>[https://www.nccoe.nist.gov/about-the-center/strategy NCCOE Strategy]</ref><br/>

# IT users report problems.
 +
# Integrators implement NCCoE reference designs and provide feedback to the NCCoE to help make the references easier to deploy.
 +
# Vendors in the NCCoE labs with researchers, contributing expertise, hardware, and software to the development of the reference design for a specific problem.
 +
# Reference design users deploy example solutions and provide feedback to validate/improve them.
 +
# Other government agencies work with NCCoE through the National Cybersecurity Federally Funded Research and Development Center (NCF).<ref>[https://www.nccoe.nist.gov/sites/default/files/library/fact-sheets/work-for-others-fact-sheet.pdf NCF Fact Sheet, NCCoE]</ref>

The “Guide for Applying the Risk Management Framework to Federal Information Systems” promotes near real-time risk management, encourages the use of automation, integrates information security, emphasizes the selection, implementation, assessment, and overall monitoring of information security controls, links risk management at the information systems level to risks at the organizational level, and establishes responsibility and accountability for security controls.<ref>[https://flank.org/faqs/what-is-nist-sp-800-37 About SP 800-37, Flank]</ref>

−
In February 2013, recognizing the national and economic security of the United States depends on the reliable function of critical infrastructure, President [[Barak Obama]] issued Executive Order 13636, "Improving Critical Infrastructure Cybersecurity," ordering NIST to work with stakeholders to develop a voluntary framework based on existing standards, guidelines, and practices for reducing cyber-risks to [[Critical Infrastructure]]. On December 18, 2014, the Cybersecurity Enhancement Act of 2014 (CEA) authorized the Department of Commerce, through NIST, to develop voluntary standards to reduce cyber-risks to critical infrastructure.<ref>[https://itlaw.wikia.org/wiki/Cybersecurity_Enhancement_Act_of_2014 CEA, IT Law Wiki]</ref> The law also ordered the Office of Science and Technology Policy to develop a federal cybersecurity research and development plan. Section 502 required the Director of NIST to ensure interagency coordination toward the development of international technical standards for IT security and transmit to Congress a plan.
