Announcement
Organizations throughout the world face the challenge of identifying trustworthy computing devices to function daily. Cyber supply chains are constantly at risk of compromise, whether intentional or unintentional. Once a supply chain has been compromised, the security of that device may no longer be trusted. Some cyber supply chain risks include counterfeiting, unauthorized production, and tampering.
NIST's National Cybersecurity Center of Excellence (NCCoE) is collaborating with industry to create an example cybersecurity solution that helps organizations verify that the internal components of their computing devices are genuine and have not been tampered with. This project will result in a publicly available practice guide to help organizations decrease the risk of compromise to products in their supply chain, and in turn reduce the risk for customers and end users.
Organizations are increasingly at risk of cyber supply chain compromise, whether intentional or unintentional. Cyber supply chain risks include counterfeiting, unauthorized production, tampering, theft, and insertion of unexpected software and hardware. Managing these risks requires ensuring the integrity of the cyber supply chain and its products and services. This project will demonstrate how organizations can verify that the internal components of the computing devices they acquire are genuine and have not been unexpectedly altered during manufacturing or distribution processes.
