The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) hosted a virtual event titled Resources for Ransomware Risk Management on January 28, 2026. The event focused on ransomware as a persistent risk to organizations of all sizes and sectors and emphasized the need for cross-sector collaboration to develop practical resources for reducing ransomware risk. Speakers from NIST, the Center for Internet Security, and the Institute for Security and Technology (IST) provided an overview of available ransomware risk management resources designed to help organizations establish foundational safeguards and build effective strategies. Featured resources included the NIST Ransomware Risk Management Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 Community Profile, published as an initial public draft, and the IST and Ransomware Task Force Blueprint for Ransomware Defense, which offers an actionable framework tailored for small to medium-sized enterprises. Presenters described the development and use of these resources and discussed ongoing and future efforts in ransomware risk management, with the session allowing time for audience questions and discussion.
