Security Analysis of First Responder Mobile and Wearable Devices: NiSTIR 8196
NISTIR 8196 released December 2018
Public safety practitioners utilizing the forthcoming Nationwide Public Safety Broadband Network (NPSBN) will have smartphones, tablets, and wearables at their disposal. Although these devices should enable first responders to complete their missions, any influx of new technologies will introduce new security vulnerabilities. This document analyzes the needs of public safety mobile devices and wearables from a cybersecurity perspective, specifically for the fire service, emergency medical service (EMS), and law enforcement. To accomplish this goal, cybersecurity use cases were analyzed, previously known attacks against related systems were reviewed, and a threat model was created. The overarching goal of this work is to identify security objectives for these devices, enabling jurisdictions to more easily select and purchase secure devices and industry to design and build more secure public safety devices.
Why buy a book you can download for free? We print this book so you don’t have to.
First you gotta find a good clean (legible) copy and make sure it’s the latest version (not always easy). Some documents found on the web are missing some pages or the image quality is so poor, they are difficult to read. We look over each document carefully and replace poor quality images by going back to the original source document. We proof each document to make sure it’s all there – including all changes. If you find a good copy, you could print it using a network printer you share with 100 other people (typically its either out of paper or toner). If it’s just a 10-page document, no problem, but if it’s 250-pages, you will need to punch 3 holes in all those pages and put it in a 3-ring binder. Takes at least an hour.
It’s much more cost-effective to just order the latest version from Amazon.com
This book includes original commentary which is copyright material. Note that government documents are in the public domain. We print these large documents as a service so you don’t have to. The books are compact, tightly-bound, full-size (8 ½ by 11 inches), with large text and glossy covers. 4th Watch Publishing Co. is a HUBZONE SDVOSB.
