Presentation Title

SEMI SMCC SSCA Auditing: Mapping Evidence Requirements with Interactive Session of Case Study - Chimera APT Cyber Attack

This session is delivered in two halves. In the first half, we introduce a mapping of evidence requirements to audit questions in the SSCA under each of the NIST CSF 2.0 categories. This mapping is developed to guide semiconductor suppliers towards complying with the audit requirements. In the following half, we introduce the participants to the Chimera APT, which has been a known cyber-attack targeting the semiconductor ecosystem. We will map the evidence requirements to Chimera to assess for cost and effectiveness.
