Security
As biotechnology evolves, so do cyber threats. This effort tackles vulnerabilities in lab instruments and networked devices, crafting easy-to-use reference guides. We work for a future where security is achievable, understandable, and used by every industry leader - from the front-line to the investors.
Fortifying the Bioeconomy
As biotechnology advances, so do the cyber threats facing the industry. The BIO-ISAC Device Security initiative is dedicated to fortifying the bioeconomy by tackling vulnerabilities in lab instruments and networked hardware. By providing industry leaders with accessible reference guides and security tools, we ensure that innovation in the life sciences can thrive on a foundation of safety and resilience.
New! Designing Network Architectures to Secure the Bioeconomy
To successfully defend against cyberbiosecurity threats, an organization must invest in designing an advanced network architecture that includes the deployment of known secure-by-design, Defense-in-Depth, and zero trust network access principles. Designing Network Architectures to Secure the Bioeconomy is intended as a freely available guide for operators and executives in the bioeconomy who wish to improve the operational resilience of their organizations in the face of modern cyberbiosecurity realities.
Fortifying the Bioeconomy: Shared Responsibility
The flagship publication, Fortifying the Bioeconomy, reviews the shared responsibility model needed to truly defend biotech equipment and offers instruction on how to insert shared responsibility into contracts when acquiring instruments and equipment.
Biosecurity Evaluation Questionnaire
The next part of the series includes the launch of the Biosecurity Evaluation Questionnaire, or BSEQ, designed to walk decision makers through the security considerations of the equipment acquisition process, with a focus on building stronger expectations from manufacturers and firms when it comes to instrument security.
Instrument Disposal Guide
The series also includes the Instrument Disposal Guide, an overview of how to prepare to remove instruments from a manufacturing site and safely remove any data captured on the equipment during its lifecycle.
