CISA and FBI Release Secure by Design Alert Urging Manufacturers to Eliminate Defects in SOHO Routers

Here is a summary of the document in 150 words or less:

The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) have published guidance on Security Design Improvements for SOHO Device Manufacturers as part of the Secure by Design (SbD) Alert series. The guidance focuses on how manufacturers can shift the burden of security away from customers by integrating security into product design and development. Specifically, manufacturers are urged to eliminate exploitable defects in SOHO router web management interfaces, adjust default device configurations to prioritize security, and disclose vulnerabilities via the CVE program. The guidance also recommends implementing incentive structures that prioritize security during product design and development. By following these principles, manufacturers can prevent exploitation of SOHO routers and achieve better customer security outcomes.

Summary:
The document outlines guidelines for SOHO device manufacturers to improve security design and development to prevent exploitation of SOHO routers.
