Hyperledger Fabric 2.0 Architecture Security Controls Checklist
Release Date: 06/28/2021
Working Group: Blockchain/Distributed Ledger
Blockchain technology is being rapidly adopted by enterprises to bring traceability and transparency to external business workflows. Considering that many of these workflows involve transactions and custody of value in the form of digital assets or other high-value data, cybersecurity attributes such as privacy, confidentiality, integrity, and availability certainly take center stage in the blockchain space.
In this spreadsheet, we deliver a fully implementable security controls checklist for the blockchain framework Hyperledger Fabric 2.0. These controls are aligned with the NIST Cybersecurity Framework’s controls to proactively prevent, detect and respond to the risks of Fabric 2.0, thus mitigating the business impacts downstream caused by loss of trade, trust, and ownership. In the accompanying Hyperledger Fabric 2.0 Architecture Security Report, we identified the cybersecurity risks of implementing Hyperledger Fabric 2.0’s architecture as a permissioned blockchain enterprise network for a trade finance business in a cloud-based environment.
Key Takeaways:
Key Takeaways:
- Definitions for terms relating to Hyperledger Fabric and cybersecurity
