  • Publication number: 20180307843
    Abstract: In some embodiments, an apparatus includes a control chain generation module is configured to receive, from a control database, a security guideline control to be implemented with respect to a hardware asset. The control chain generation module is configured to select, based on requirements to satisfy the security guideline and attributes of the hardware asset, a security implementation control. The control chain generation module is configured to select a control assessor to monitor the compliance of the hardware asset with the security guideline and is configured to define a control chain including the security guideline control, the security implementation control, and the control assessor. The control chain generation module is configured to send an instruction to apply the control chain to the hardware asset such that the control assessor monitors the hardware asset for compliance with the security guideline.
