Security By Default

Integrate security into digital innovation and operations.

Objectives

Our Security by Default Working Group is committed to help integrate robust security measures into the core of every digital innovation and business operation.

Spearheaded by our Partners, our mission is to champion the principle of security by design, adopt the highest appropriate level of security and data protection and ensure that it is preconfigured into the design of products, functionalities, processes, technologies, operations, architectures, and business models.

We develop best practices, and provide actionable guidelines to foster a security-first mindset across all sectors.

By leveraging our collective expertise and collaborating with policymakers, businesses, and the wider community, we aim to build a resilient digital ecosystem where cybersecurity is a fundamental priority, not an afterthought.

Webinar: Cyber Risk Assessment for surviving uncertain times: Guidelines and best practices from Charter of Trust experts

Join us to discuss with our experts the Charter of Trust's Guidelines on Cybersecurity Risk Assessment. They provide a concise introduction to risk assessment, supported by practical guidance based on the experience of its members.

The Charter of Trust consists of 10 Principles and this webinar is brought to you by the Charter’s Taskforce on Principle 3 “Security by Default”. Experts in this taskforce work to establish and adopt the highest appropriate level of security and data protection and ensure that it is preconfiguered into the design of products, functionalities, process, technologies, operations, architectures, and business models. We call this our Baseline Requirements: With them in mind, you can ensure confidentiality, authenticity, and integrity within your systems.

In this webinar, you will learn about the objectives, scope and benefits of risk assessment. Our experts Sudhir Ethiraj (TÜV SÜD), Angelika Steinacker (IBM), Marko Wolf (Bosch), Ki Hyun Park (Mitsubishi), and Didier Ludwig (Siemens) will share best practices with insights and examples on the roles, timing, methods, and standards involved in risk assessment.

3 key takeaways:
💡 Charter of Trust introduced the principle “Security by default” recognizing that securing the product alone is not sufficient.
💡 The biggest challenge: Outdated devices and existing systems are still functional and have significant financial investments associated with them. However, they were not designed with security in mind.
💡 The Charter of Trust taskforce worked on establishing a common set of guidelines for Security by default that can be used across different industries and domains.

Thank you Siemens for including this topic in your Cybersecurity and Charter of Trust Innovation series. Looking forward to the further exchange this week with MSC 2024 ahead.
