NIST Updates NVD Operations to Address Record CVE Growth
Just Announced: New RAMPS Funding Opportunity
Register for the NIST Cyber AI Profile Virtual Event Series
WELCOME TO THE INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY LABORATORY
The Information Technology Laboratory (ITL) is one of NIST’s six research laboratories. ITL focuses on IT measurements, testing, and standards, and is a globally recognized and trusted source of high-quality, independent, and unbiased research and data. ITL’s mission, to cultivate trust in information technology (IT) and metrology, is accomplished using its world-class measurement and testing facilities and encompassing a wide range of areas of computer science, mathematics, statistics, and systems engineering.
This non-regulatory role, along with ITL’s deep technical expertise in all fields of information technology, helps increase trust in IT worldwide.
