MITRE ATLAS (Adversarial Landscape for Artificial-Intelligence Systems):

✔️ includes adversary and for machine learning (ML) systems.

✔️ is based on real-world observations from red teams, cyber security working groups and academic research.

✔️ is modeled after the MITRE ATT&CK

Examples of specific attacks:

📌Model Evasion – attacker identifies query to perform to get a desired outcome after observing output of the ML system for certain types of input (inference stage)

📌Functional Extraction – obtaining model functionally through iterative querying (inference stage)

📌Model Poisoning – attacker can “reprogram” the ML system to perform a new undesired task or have a new undesired output (train phase)

📌Model Inversion – attacker recovers the features used to train the model (inference stage)

Convergent Evolution: SP 800-213, the Federal Profile, and the IoT Cybersecurity Catalog 01/01/2022

’s new IoT cybersecurity guidelines

After months of workshops and gathering input from all relevant stakeholders, the following have been published:

📌 SP 800-213 – requirements when starting to use an device from an IoT device and its manufacturer and/or third parties

📌 SP 800-213A - the updated catalogue of:

📝 device cybersecurity capabilities (i.e., features and functions needed from a device to support )

📝 non-technical supporting capabilities (i.e., actions and support needed from device manufacturers and other supporting entities to support security controls)

📌Don’t forget about the related publications: NISTIR 8259, NISTIR 8259A, NISTIR 8259B

Convergent Evolution: SP 800-213, the Federal Profile, and the IoT Cybersecurity Catalog NIST has been engaged for several years in developing guidance for Internet of Things (IoT) cybersecurity.
