Digital Security by Design: Transforming Digital Technology for a Safer Future. The second day of CyberUK 2023 focused on the newly launched joint guide for Security by Design and Default by CISA and NCSC. The guide highlights the best practices for a secure hardware foundation, including fine-grained memory protection as provided by the CHERI
The Secure Networking by Design project is part of the Digital Security by Design Challenge aimed at improving cybersecurity in today's digital landscape. It recognises the importance of continuous assurance processes in mitigating the risks of advanced attacks and evolving threat scenarios. Continuous assurance is a key component of the ManySecured® system, an open ecosystem
As we start the new year and move into 2023, there are some key developments at IoTSF that we’d like to keep you updated on – especially our support and participation in the Digital Security by Design challenge. But first, what is the Digital Security by Design challenge? The team at the University of
The IoT Security Foundation, nquiringMinds and the University of Oxford collaborate to launch the Secure Networking by Design (SNbD) project for the development of advanced, open source, network protections for Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and router vendors. IoTSF has teamed up with nquiringMinds and the University of Oxford to launch the Secure Networking by Design (SNbD)
