Impactful Policy Frameworks
NIST AI Risk Management Framework (2023)
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) released its AI Risk Management Framework (AI RMF 1.0) in January 2023, providing voluntary guidance for organizations to manage risks associated with designing, developing, deploying, and using AI systems.
While voluntary, this framework could influence best practices for integrating AI features into developer tools, requiring developers to consider ethical AI development and data privacy within their local environments.
American Data Privacy and Protection Act (ADPPA) - Proposed (2022)
The proposed American Data Privacy and Protection Act (ADPPA) in 2022 aimed to create a comprehensive federal privacy law, establishing national standards for how companies collect, use, and share personal data, superseding various state laws.
If passed, this federal privacy law would mandate stricter data handling practices for developer tools that might collect usage data or facilitate data processing, potentially impacting how ServBay manages user data or its support for applications handling personal data.
Executive Order on Improving the Nation’s Cybersecurity (2021)
Issued by President Biden in May 2021, this Executive Order mandates various actions to improve U.S. cybersecurity, including enhancing software supply chain security, establishing a Software Bill of Materials (SBOM), and promoting cloud security.
This order could drive demand for developer tools that offer enhanced security features, secure coding practices, and supply chain transparency, pushing ServBay to emphasize its secure SSL/PKI systems and robust security updates.
