Frameworks
What each framework specifies, where it sits, and what its source license permits
The framework corpus splits along two axes: workforce versus pedagogy, and US/EU/global jurisdiction. The combinations are not exhaustive (there is no global pedagogy framework, and the US is overrepresented in both columns), but together the frameworks span the practical comparison surface for most cybersecurity workforce and education research questions.
Counts on this table use the with-examples figure. Strict counts (numbered standards only) appear on each framework’s page and on the density-spread query.
