NIST Workshop on SI Incident Management

NIST's report synthesizes a May 2026 workshop of more than 400 public-sector, technology, academic and civil-society participants on responding to incidents involving superintelligence systems. It separates attacks against such systems from harm caused by misuse, anomalous behavior or operational failures.

Participants identify gaps in incident response for probabilistic and autonomous systems, including reasoning-layer telemetry, non-human identity governance, scoped containment, evidence standards and coordination across a distributed supply chain. NIST presents these as foundations for future guidance, not an already adopted federal standard.
