This objective of this project from the National Cybersecurity Center of Excellence (NCCoE) is to effectively identify assets (devices, data, and applications) that may become targets of data integrity attacks, as well as the vulnerabilities in the organization’s system that facilitate these attacks. It will also explore methods to protect these assets against data integrity attacks through the use of backups, secure storage, integrity checking mechanisms, audit logs, vulnerability management, maintenance, and other potential solutions. The project will also result in a freely available NIST Cybersecurity Practice Guide, documenting an example solution that demonstrates how to perform the following actions:
Access Control; Audit and Accountability; Assessment, Authorization and Monitoring; Configuration Management; Contingency Planning; Identification and Authentication; Incident Response; Maintenance; Media Protection; Physical and Environmental Protection; Program Management; Risk Assessment; System and Services Acquisition; System and Communications Protection; System and Information Integrity
