NIST CSRC Glossary

The NIST CSRC Glossary is a reference site that pairs computer security terms with definitions and attributes each pair to a source document. Readers are directed to the identified source document to see a term in its proper context, and terminology questions go to the source authors. This page contains the site navigation and usage guidance for the glossary.

Study notes

  • The page is site navigation and usage guidance; it does not define Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT).
  • Each glossary entry is a term-definition pair attributed to a source document; context is obtained from that source.
  • Inquiries about terminology go to the source authors; NIST publications usually include a contact email for the source.
  • Comments about the glossary's presentation and functionality are directed through a separate link.
