Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Given the threats, software supply chain security poses an urgent problem to policy makers. In this analysis, we develop a toolbox that combines diverse instruments with targeted government action to be practical guidance for policy makers. This toolbox approach has the advantage that policy makers can choose instruments suited to their respective positions, considering, for example, available resources and capabilities. After reviewing the instruments and the possibilities for government action, we have compiled three sets of policy priorities that policy makers should focus on, providing three levels of ambition that cater to different national venture points.

Download or read book Disclosure of Software Supply Chain Risks written by Sasha Romanosky and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 10 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The nation's reliance on computer software to run and manage critical business services has increased dramatically over many decades and only continues to grow. But with this reliance comes risk. The increasing rate of and impact from the exploitation of software vulnerabilities has caused billions of dollars of damage and losses to thousands of companies across the world. And the malicious compromise- or even accidental failure-of software threatens firms across all industries throughout the United States. Moreover, it has become increasingly true that modern software applications are built on a foundation of third-party and open-source software components, developed by thousands of professional and volunteer contributors across the world. This complexity and decentralized nature of the modern software ecosystem mean that firms are more separated from the oversight of the software that runs their businesses and increasingly exposed to risks because of this expanding software supply chain. Although many federal government agencies are vocal in addressing this issue in their own way, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has been relatively quiet. This Perspective presents a set of proposed disclosure rules that the SEC could implement to help address software supply chain security.
Download or read book Hardware Supply Chain Security written by Basel Halak and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-02-04 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a new threat modelling approach that specifically targets the hardware supply chain, covering security risks throughout the lifecycle of an electronic system. The authors present a case study on a new type of security attack, which combines two forms of attack mechanisms from two different stages of the IC supply chain. More specifically, this attack targets the newly developed, light cipher (Ascon) and demonstrates how it can be broken easily, when its implementation is compromised with a hardware Trojan. This book also discusses emerging countermeasures, including anti-counterfeit design techniques for resources constrained devices and anomaly detection methods for embedded systems.
