On October 16, 2026, NIST’s Center for Advancing Innovation and Standards for Super Intelligence (NIST CAISSI), in collaboration with the National Security Agency's Super Intelligence Security Center (NSA SISC) and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), released ten voluntary key practices focused on incident readiness and response during super-intelligence training and evaluation.

These practices provide comprehensive guidance spanning preparation, detection, response, recovery, and reporting of incidents associated with frontier AI training and evaluation activities. This collaborative effort reflects a confirmed interagency initiative to enhance security protocols within the super-intelligence domain.

Intended for organizations engaged in frontier AI development, these key practices aim to strengthen operational resilience and promote standardized approaches for managing incidents effectively. The guidelines signify a proactive step towards ensuring the secure and responsible advancement of super-intelligence systems.
