At Carnegie Mellon we leverage ISO, NIST, COBIT and others at different
times for different reasons. More recently we have been looking at the
Resiliency Management Model, which is a model for operational process
improvement that brings together information security, business continuity
and IT operations to help organizations achieve operational resilience.
It's not a security management framework, but it's worth a look.

I thought I'd correct my previous statement about the Resiliency Management Model being used as a security management 
framework. What I should have said is that it's not a prescriptive code of practice like ISO 27002 and NIST 800-53, but 
it could certainly be used as a security management framework. There is a crosswalk to ISO 27002, COBIT, PCI DSS and 
other standards available as well. Didn't want to misrepresent things.
