CWE/CAPEC Working Groups (WGs) and Special Interest Groups (SIGs)

Hardware CWE Special Interest Group (HW CWE SIG)

The HW CWE SIG offers a forum for researchers and representatives from organizations operating in hardware design, manufacturing, and security to interact, share opinions and expertise, and leverage each other’s experiences in supporting the continued growth and adoption of CWE as a common language for defining hardware security weaknesses. The objective of the HW CWE SIG is to establish a stakeholder community for discussing HW CWE content and explore further cross-organizational collaboration opportunities.

ICS/OT Special Interest Group (ICS/OT SIG)

The ICS/OT SIG offers a forum for researchers and technical representatives from organizations operating in industrial control systems (ICS) and operational technology (OT) design, manufacturing, and security to interact, share opinions and expertise, and leverage each other’s experiences in supporting continued growth and adoption of CWE as a common language for defining ICS/OT security weaknesses and their associated patterns of attack.
