The National Cybersecurity Center of Excellence aims to further standards-based solutions.
When you walk into the National Cybersecurity Center of Excellence (NCCoE), you’re struck by the atmosphere of casual collaboration — open space, whiteboards and writable surfaces, and one big, round conference table. But the center has a serious mission.
Formed in 2012 by a partnership between the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), the state of Maryland and Montgomery County, Md., the NCCoE brings together experts from industry, government and academia to advance cybersecurity through practical, standards-based solutions.
“We have a space that’s intended to be collaborative, with the idea that collaboration breeds innovation,” says Nate Lesser, deputy director for the NCCoE in Rockville, Md.
