DEFINITY ECS What’s New for Release 9 555-233-766 Issue 2 February 2001 v Copyright and legal notices Providing Telecommunications Security Telecommunications security (of voice, data, and/or video communications) is the prevention of any type of intrusion to (that is, either unauthorized or malicious access to or use of your company’s telecommunications equipment) by some party. Your company’s “telecommunications equipment” includes both this Avaya product and any other voice/data/video equipment that could be accessed via this Avaya product (that is, “networked equipment”). An “outside party” is anyone who is not a corporate employee, agent, subcontractor, or working on your company’s behalf. Whereas, a “malicious party” is anyone (including someone who may be otherwise authorized) who accesses your telecommunications equipment with either malicious or mischievous intent. Such intrusions may be either to/through synchronous (time-multiplexed and/or circuit-based) or asynchronous (character-, message-, or packet-based) equipment or interfaces for reasons of: • Utilization (of capabilities special to the accessed equipment) • Theft (such as, of intellectual property, financial assets, or toll-facility access) • Eavesdropping (privacy invasions to humans) • Mischief (troubling, but apparently innocuous, tampering) • Harm (such as harmful tampering, data loss or alteration, regardless of motive or intent) DEFINITY ECS What’s New for Release 9 555-233-766 Issue 2 February 2001 vi Copyright and legal notices Be aware that there may be a risk of unauthorized intrusions associated with your system and/or its networked equipment.

    Appendix 1 Information And Communications Technology (ICT) Supply Chain Risk Management (SCRM) Task Force (TF) Threat Evaluation Working Group: Threat Scenarios, CISA, February 2020 TLP: WHITE CYBERSECURITY AND INFRASTRUCTURE SECURITY AGENCY INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATIONS TECHNOLOGY SUPPLY CHAIN RISK MANAGEMENT TASK FORCE Threat Evaluation Working Group: Threat Scenarios February 2020 TLP: WHITE TLP: WHITE This page is intentionally left blank. CYBERSECURITY AND INFRASTRUCTURE SECURITY AGENCY TLP: WHITE ii TLP: WHITE EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Cyber Supply Chain Risk Management (C-SCRM) is the process of identifying, assessing, preventing, and mitigating the risks associated with the distributed and interconnected nature of Information and Communications Technology (ICT) (including the Internet of Things) product and service supply chains. C-SCRM covers the entire life cycle of ICT, and encompasses hardware, software, and information assurance, along with traditional supply chain management and supply chain security considerations. In October 2018, the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) launched the ICT Supply Chain Risk Management Task Force, a public-private partnership to provide advice and recommendations to CISA and its stakeholders on means for assessing and managing risks associated with the ICT supply chain. Working Group 2 (WG2), Threat Evaluation, was established for the purpose of the identification of processes and criteria for threat-based evaluation of ICT suppliers, products, and services. WG2 focused on threat evaluation as opposed to the more comprehensive task of risk assessment which considers threats as well as an organization’s tolerance for risk, the criticality of the specific asset or business/mission purpose, and the impact of exploitation of specific vulnerabilities that might be exploited by an external threat.

  • A Brief History of Unix
    A Brief History of Unix Tom Ryder [email protected] https://sanctum.geek.nz/ I Love Unix ∴ I Love Linux ● When I started using Linux, I was impressed because of the ethics behind it. ● I loved the idea that an operating system could be both free to customise, and free of charge. – Being a cash-strapped student helped a lot, too. ● As my experience grew, I came to appreciate the design behind it. ● And the design is UNIX. ● Linux isn’t a perfect Unix, but it has all the really important bits. What do we actually mean? ● We’re referring to the Unix family of operating systems. – Unix from Bell Labs (Research Unix) – GNU/Linux – Berkeley Software Distribution (BSD) Unix – Mac OS X – Minix (Intel loves it) – ...and many more Warning signs: 1/2 If your operating system shows many of the following symptoms, it may be a Unix: – Multi-user, multi-tasking – Hierarchical filesystem, with a single root – Devices represented as files – Streams of text everywhere as a user interface – “Formatless” files ● Data is just data: streams of bytes saved in sequence ● There isn’t a “text file” attribute, for example Warning signs: 2/2 – Bourne-style shell with a “pipe”: ● $ program1 | program2 – “Shebangs” specifying file interpreters: ● #!/bin/sh – C programming language baked in everywhere – Classic programs: sh(1), awk(1), grep(1), sed(1) – Users with beards, long hair, glasses, and very strong opinions... Nobody saw it coming! “The number of Unix installations has grown to 10, with more expected.” — Ken Thompson and Dennis Ritchie (1972) ● Unix in some flavour is in servers, desktops, embedded software (including Intel’s management engine), mobile phones, network equipment, single-board computers..

This latest report from the Threat Evaluation Working Group adds the assessment of Products and Executive Services to include impacts and mitigating controls to each of the Supplier Threat Scenarios Summary provided in the original version released in February 2020, and later augmented with impacts and mitigating controls in October 2020. These additional sections are included in Appendix C, Threat Scenarios, of this report. The Working Group (WG) chose to include these updates as a standalone report to benefit the audience without the need to include numerous references to the original reports. Cyber Supply Chain Risk Management (C-SCRM) is the process of identifying, assessing, preventing, and mitigating the risks associated with the distributed and interconnected nature of Information and Communications Technology (ICT) (including the Internet of Things [IoT]) product and service supply chains. C-SCRM covers the entire life cycle of ICT, and encompasses hardware, software, and information assurance, along with traditional supply chain management and supply chain security considerations. In October 2018, the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) launched the ICT Supply Chain Risk Management Task Force, a public-private partnership to provide advice and recommendations to CISA and its stakeholders on means for assessing and managing risks associated with the ICT supply chain.
