Summary:
|
Security (understood as per SG17 mandate) is under a very strong evolution at a much faster pace than a 4 years term cadence. There are many forces in action driving a lot of innovation such as:
- Strong arm race between attackers and defenders
- The general Digitalization mega-trend driving general innovation (AI, DLT, etc.)
- A fundamental singularity moment is approaching called post-quantum
- A strong change in the policy and regulatory frameworks at country and regional levels (e.g. GDPR)
In this context, SG17 took the initiative to develop a strategy of transformation of security studies through a correspondence group called CG-xss. This correspondence group and the associated special sessions on transformation of security studies delivered a strategy in three steps where the first step was about the creation of an incubation mechanism to deal with innovation at a much more timely manner.
Whilst this incubation mechanism proved to be successful in pilot, a lot of the documentation describing it got diluted in too many temporary documents. It was therefore felt the need for a reference live document that can codify this incubation mechanism and fundamentally incrementally answer the question: how to bring innovation in cybersecurity standardisation in Study Group 17 in a timely manner?
This document proposes a technical paper whose purpose is precisely to answer this question. As any mechanism can be improved it will as well review and analyse what other SDOs are doing to bring innovation and perhaps it will help SG17 to constantly review and improve this mechanism.
