ICT SUPPLY CHAIN RESILIENCE:
THE WAY AHEAD
The ongoing Russian APT attack underscores the importance of “securing our national supply chains," but what does that mean? What needs to be done, how can it be done and who needs to take action?
The 2020 Cyberspace Solarium Commission (CSC) Report says “implement an information communications technology industrial base strategy to ensure more trusted supply chains and the availability of critical information communications technology (ICT)." In today’s information-age, ICT is a critical transformative technology, enabling all other technologies and capabilities of our infrastructure sectors; our growing interconnectivity simultaneously increases our attack surface. How do we develop a risk-based-approach to maximize the benefits and minimize the risk?
The Institute for Critical Infrastructure Technology (ICIT, in partnership with the Cyberspace Solarium Commission, (CSC) will host this year’s Spring Briefing on ICT/Cyber-Supply Chain Risk Management (SCRM), bringing together policy and technical subject matter experts (SMEs) from the US Government (USG), industry and academia to discuss risk-based-approaches to secure our national supply chains:
What are your sectors’ (eco-systems’) most critical components? How deep do we go in the technology stack? How far left do we go in the lifecycle/design process? What tools and skills are available today and need to be developed for the future of “securing our national supply chains?

The finished report was presented to the public on March 11, 2020. The William M.
