SCF National Cyber Parks - Circuit Mesa (EMB)

The Secure Controls Framework (SCF) is focused on security, compliance & resilience capabilities. 

Security + Compliance + Resilience is a unified objective. With this multi-discipline approach to cybersecurity and data protection, it signals that an organization isn’t just protected, but also meets its compliance requirements and can quickly bounce back from incidents.

The SCF is a framework and technology-agnostic approach to cybersecurity and data protection controls that can be used to identify, implement and manage secure, compliant and resilient capabilities that covers an organization’s People, Processes, Technologies, Data and Facilities (PPTDF).

As part of the SCF's cybersecurity awareness initiative, we created a National Cyber Park for each SCF domain. Of the SCF's thirty-three (33) domains, this article focuses on the Embedded Technology (EMB) domain.

Embedded Technology (EMB)

EMB Domain Principle

Provide additional scrutiny to reduce the risks associated with embedded technology, based on the potential damages posed from malicious use of the technology. 

EMB Domain Intent

Organizations specify the development, proactive management and ongoing review of security embedded technologies, including hardening of the “stack” from the hardware, firmware and software to transmission and service protocols used for Internet of Things (IoT) and Operational Technology (OT) devices.
