You may be looking for NDAA security products, even though NDAA is an American concept which is an acronym of the "National Defense Authorization Act" (NDAA) you are certainly on the right path and no doubt your organisation requires security equipment that has a greater amount of provenance.
Although NDAA and CPNI are completely different concepts they share some key principles. Some of those principles revolve around hardware bought from other countries that are often used in high-risk premises.
In a nutshell, CPNI covers a range of different scenarios and organisations that are critical to the UK's national interest whereas NDAA is solely based on the defence of the US however NDAA products usually meet the criteria for CPNI. Both these concepts serve to protect the interests of those countries and this in turn directly affects what hardware can be installed into certain facilities.
Although NDAA is American it is still sometimes used to describe products that surpass a certain benchmark, whether that is the hardware/software type or origin.
The ever-changing political landscape globally can mean technology has a hard time keeping up with the country's evolving security needs. Choosing security products that have been manufactured with global regulations in mind can ensure that your system provides you with the peace of mind it was intended for.
In the UK we have specific sectors that have been outlined by the UK government as being critical to our national interest, so cyber security at these sites needs to be at the forefront of any procurement or infrastructure design process.
These sectors are:
Other industries which may benefit from security products manufactured to standards set out by the UK and US governments. These industries include but are not limited to:
CPNI is based on a few basic principles, it doesn't just cover CCTV and security products:
Deter, Detect and Delay, Mitigate and Respond, supported by a security plan, will help to frustrate and disrupt an adversary’s attack timeline (from planning through to execution of an attack)
Of course a dedicated electronic security system would and should be at the very helm of this ethos with deterrence and perimeter detection coming first then several layers of electronic security to further bolster the security system
Other measures can then be implemented outside the scope of electronic security. For further information about CPNI, what it is, who they are and how you can work to their guidelines during the procurement process visit their website for a broad view of CPNI or contact us for specialist knowledge of security-specific information.
We have decades of experience installing electronic security for some of the country's most high-risk departments, divisions and bodies. This coupled with our extensive cyber risk knowledge and up-to-date cyber hygiene practises helps us deliver unbeatable service and build relationships that revolve around the interests of our client's security, safety, assets and intellectual property.
We have also undergone several security clearances which include enhanced checks to BS7858 with this including all our staff not just our engineers and technicians. You should have no reservations about us working on your CPNI or high-risk site.
