The Commerce Department division that developed a 2014 cybersecurity framework for industry will begin work on a privacy framework to help companies protect the personal information of customers and employees.

The privacy framework will be modeled on the process of public meetings and feedback mechanisms NIST used to develop its cybersecurity framework, the institute said in a fact sheet.

Like the cybersecurity framework, the NIST privacy framework will be entirely voluntary for companies.

Where the cyber framework focused on information security best practices and controlling who could access information, the privacy framework will focus on privacy risks that “arise from how organizations collect, store, use, and share this information to meet their mission or business objective[s],” according to the fact sheet.
