Where It Sits in the Scheme

4 ASOM-Fed techniques reach this countermeasure, across 3 forms of maneuver.

This is the direction the forward mapping cannot answer. A reader who works in D3FEND arrives holding D3-CIA and needs to know where it is employed in a scheme of maneuver — not which of MITRE's tactics it belongs to, which they already know.

Reached By

• M1.14 Supplier Exposure MonitoringM1 Screen / Guard · T9 Supply Chain

  Monitor the suppliers and components that reach into the estate for breach disclosure, advisory and exposure, because their compromise is your compromise.

• M2.18 Component Provenance VerificationM2 Defense in Depth · T9 Supply Chain

  Know what is inside what you deploy, and verify it came from who it claims, before it runs on your ground.

• M7.06 Build Pipeline Integrity HuntM7 Counterattack · T4 Applications and Workloads

  Hunt the build pipeline specifically, because poisoning it envelops everything downstream.

• M7.16 Supply Chain Compromise HuntingM7 Counterattack · T9 Supply Chain

  Hunt for the specific behaviors a compromised supplier or component would produce, on the assumption that it is already inside.

Forms That Arrive Here

A countermeasure reached from more than one form is employed more than one way. D3FEND has no notion of a form, so this join exists only here.

• M1 Screen / GuardThe formGain early warning and buy reaction time before the adversary touches key terrain.
• M2 Defense in DepthThe formEnsure no single failure is decisive.
• M7 CounterattackThe formSeize the initiative and evict before the adversary reaches the objective.

What This Does Not Claim

That a technique reaches a D3FEND countermeasure says the two describe the same defensive act. It does not say the countermeasure is deployed, configured, or working — that is an assessment finding about your estate, not a property of the framework.

MITRE's own entry for this technique is at d3fend.mitre.org, and it is the authority on what the countermeasure is. This page is the authority only on where it sits in ASOM-Fed.
