Availability: DoS: Instability, DoS: Crash, Exit, or Restart, Reduce Reliability, Unexpected State
Potential Mitigations
Phase: Architecture and Design
Description:
Alert signals generated by critical events should be protected from access by untrusted agents. Only hardware or trusted firmware modules should be able to alter the alert configuration.
