Did we conduct a vulnerability assessment to identify gaps that can be closed through the
convergence of physical and cybersecurity?
□
Did we perform a thorough vulnerability assessment of all connected physical security devices to
identify models and manufacturers of concern?
□
Are we only using genuine products and avoiding counterfeits and unlicensed products?
□
Are there other things to consider besides the technical aspect to help mitigate risks?
□
Do the solutions considered include the necessary certifications?
□
Which data protection regulation or framework applies to our specific situation?
□
Do we need a system that allows simple updates to sensor firmware, passwords, or security certificates?
