NIST's Security Engineering and Risk Management Group says a Cybersecurity Framework profile for AI is on track for release this summer, pending agency approval. A predictive-AI overlay is due first, followed by an agentic-systems overlay in late summer to early fall — giving enterprises their first formal US AI security baseline.
Key Points
CSF profile tailored specifically to AI deployments
Separate control overlays for predictive AI and agentic systems
Becomes the de facto US baseline once published
Aligns with insurer-driven 'AI Security Riders' that now demand red-teaming evidence
Why It Matters
Enterprises have been operating without clear AI-security guidance. NIST's profile will become required reading for CISOs and shape vendor procurement requirements industry-wide.
