Paul J. Wormeli, a renowned expert in data modeling and information exchange, will be presenting NIEM Model Version 6.0 and its existing cyber-related data model content during the event. Paul serves as co-chair to NIEMOpen’s Business Architecture Committee (NBAC). This session offers a unique opportunity to learn how NIEMOpen facilitates crucial information sharing across the cybersecurity ecosystem.
NIEMOpen’s cyber-related data model provides a common language for sharing critical cybersecurity information across diverse organizations and technology platforms. This is essential for effective collaboration and response in today’s complex threat landscape.
Federal, state, local, tribal, and territorial (SLTT) partners (e.g., CISA, FTC) can seamlessly exchange cyber threat intelligence with ISACs, ISAOs, and working groups (e.g., MS-ISAC, TribalNet) using standardized formats, regardless of their internal systems.
Industry and vendor partners can share threat data and collaborate on security solutions by leveraging NIEMOpen’s standardized data models, ensuring interoperability across different platforms and tools.
Compliance drivers, such as PCI for credit card data and HHS for HIPAA data, can be addressed more effectively through standardized data exchange, enabling organizations to meet reporting requirements and share relevant information securely.

NIEMOpen enables this interoperability across multiple networks, security boundaries, IT capabilities, and communication channels—whether it be through forms, emails, phone calls, Slack, threat intelligence platforms (TIPs), STIX/TAXII, VERIS, or other mechanisms. By providing a common understanding of cybersecurity data, NIEMOpen helps break down silos and foster a more collaborative and effective approach to cybersecurity.
