(NBS), until 1988—has conducted cybersecurity research and developed cybersecurity guidance for industry, government, and academia. Since 1972, NIST has made extraordinary advancements in cybersecurity, leading the effort to the current state of technology that exists today.</p> <p>To highlight many of these accomplishments and honor the hard work and dedication by NIST's cybersecurity staff, NIST has developed the NIST Cybersecurity Program History and Timeline. The timeline provides an overview of the major research projects, programs, and ultimately, NIST's cybersecurity history.</p> <p>This history has been compiled by bringing together several sources of information, including written contributions from and interviews with current and former NIST employees, the Annual Reports on cybersecurity produced by NIST starting in 2003, and current and past NIST webpages and publications.</p> <p><strong>Also see our <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20231208150922/https://www.nist.gov/cybersecurity/50th-anniversary-cybersecurity-nist"
