NIST strengthens trust in information technology and metrology—the foundations that underpin the digital economy— through resilient cybersecurity, privacy protection, interoperability, and usability. We carry out fundamental and applied research, develop measurement standards, and create evaluation tools to accurately assess the capabilities and limitations of critical technologies—so that systems, organizations, and users can depend on them with greater confidence.
