DESCRIPTION:Secure Sourcing of COTS Products\n\nSystems are built by integr
 ating components upwards from the lowest level of the supply chain to the 
 finished\, often highly complex\, product. That upward integration process
  represents a potential security weakness. In that\, without direct scruti
 ny or control from the OEM it is possible to surreptitiously insert malici
 ous code\, or counterfeit parts at the bottom of a multilevel\, or offshor
 ed\, build. And inevitably any malicious object that is inserted down the 
 integration ladder will then be integrated into the end-product\, the most
  recent example being the SolarWinds hack of 2021.\n\nThe possibility of s
 uch a thing occurring is so obvious that you would think that there have b
 een practical efforts to address it. However\, even though we’ve expende
 d a lot of time and effort to ensure robust\, efficient and defect-free co
 de production\, we have done very little to ensure against compromises tha
 t might occur during the integration process. So\, the aim of this talk is
  to outline the challenge of supply chain risk\, as well as present a coup
 le of potential solutions from the automobile industry.\n\nCo-sponsored by
