Vulnerabilities Task Force Report Trusted Access.

摘要

The Administration has expressed concern that the concentration of multiple entities telecommunications assets in specific locations may have implications for the security and reliability of the telecommunications infrastructure. During the business and executive sessions of the National Security Telecommunications Advisory Committee (NSTAC) XXV meeting, concerns focused on telecom hotels, Internet peering points, trusted access to telecommunications facilities, equipment chain of control issues, and cable landings. Each of the security issues will be addressed in separate VTF reports. A final executive summary document will be created to highlight each topic and NSTAC recommendation. This report addresses the Administrations concerns that the telecommunications infrastructure may be more vulnerable because trusted physical access (hereafter referred to as 'access') is granted to individuals requiring entrance to sites where telecommunications assets are concentrated.
