Proposal: Enhancing NIS Platform for Risk Management of

Complex ICT Supply Chain Security

Aim: To capture and reflect the dynamic and complex nature of multiple ICT supply chain

networks through data collection, data analysis, network model building, simulation and

scenario appreciation. This will enable the prediction and control of networks in advance

through the activity of a smart autonomous central NIS Platform with dynamic exchange

between information security controls.

UU contribution: A Belief Rule-Based Generic Risk Assessment Framework (RIMER)

• Security/disaster management

• Multiple attribute group decision making

• Situation awareness and emergency systems

• Nuclear safeguards evaluation

• Video based surveillance system

• RIMER (RIMER+) are an extension of traditional rule based systems and are capable of representing more complicated causal relationships using different types of information with uncertainties
