2:00 PM - 5:00 PM

Tracks: Continuing Education, Technical Tutorials

Speaker(s): Richard Graubart, Senior Principal Cyber Security Engineer, The MITRE Corporation; Rosalie McQuaid, Cyber Resiliency Department Head, The MITRE Corporation; Deborah J. Bodeau, Senior Principal Cyber Security Engineer, The MITRE Corporation

This tutorial provides practical guidance to systems engineers seeking to improve the cyber resiliency of systems in a wide variety of situations. It introduces and explains the constructs of NIST SP 800-160 Volume 2: Systems Security Engineering: Cyber Resiliency Considerations for the Engineering of Trustworthy Secure Systems. NIST SP 800-160 V2 is the first national guideline focused on the topic of cyber resiliency, and the proposers of this tutorial are three-quarters of the authoring team. The tutorial also discusses ways to assess the cyber resiliency of a system and to define and evaluate measures of effectiveness (MOEs) for alternative cyber resiliency solutions. Finally, the utility of cyber resiliency is demonstrated through some real world uses cases including vehicles and critical infrastructure systems.
