Now Available: NIST NCCoE Project Portfolio
A US cybersecurity research portfolio worth a low-priority scan for any AI-adjacent security projects that may inform future Australian standards work.
Key points
- NIST's NCCoE has released its inaugural Project Portfolio outlining active cybersecurity research priorities and projects.
- The portfolio covers US cybersecurity innovation broadly; AI-specific content is not confirmed as a primary focus.
- Limited direct relevance to Australian federal agencies - included for context as a US standards-body output.
Implications for Australian agencies
- Monitor Cyber and AI policy teams may want to scan the portfolio for any AI-security projects that could inform Australian standards alignment or future AISI work.
Implications are AI-generated. Starting points, not advice — see methodology for how they're framed.

NIST's National Cybersecurity Center of Excellence (NCCoE) has published its first Project Portfolio, summarising its research priorities, active projects, and four strategic pillars. The document includes links to individual project details and pathways for public input. A free webinar on 19 February 2026 will provide an overview and allow participant feedback. The portfolio is primarily a US-facing cybersecurity research document; its relevance to Australian AI governance depends on whether specific projects address AI-adjacent security topics.
Implications for Australian agencies:
- [Monitor] Cyber and AI policy teams may want to scan the portfolio for any AI-security projects that could inform Australian standards alignment or future AISI work.
