[Verse 1]
Behind locked vault doors where the blueprints hide
Twelve categories map what could collide
Assessment frameworks dissect every thread
From counterfeit chips to the source code we dread
Likelihood ratings dance with consequence scores
While taxonomy guides unlock hidden drawers
[Chorus]
Secrets that we keep, classified and deep
Risk registers weep with ratings we must reap
NIST eight-oh-one holds the golden key
Twelve buckets sorting threats we cannot see
Monitor, assess, then mitigate
Supply chain secrets we must orchestrate
[Verse 2]
Program Protection Plans draft our defense
Criticality analysis makes perfect sense
Top ten briefings climb the ladder high
Executive summaries reach for the sky
Sub-category drilling reveals the core
Of vendors and pathways we can't ignore
[Chorus]
Secrets that we keep, classified and deep
Risk registers weep with ratings we must reap
NIST eight-oh-one holds the golden key
Twelve buckets sorting threats we cannot see
Monitor, assess, then mitigate
Supply chain secrets we must orchestrate
[Bridge]
Escalation triggers sound the alarm
Review cadence cycles prevent all harm
Data sources feeding the hungry machine
Monitoring protocols keep ledgers clean
[Verse 3]
Mitigation strategies weave through the plan
Taxonomy organizing where others ran
DoD frameworks guard the precious load
SCRM planning paves the secure road
[Final Chorus]
Secrets that we keep, classified and deep
Risk registers weep with ratings we must reap
NIST eight-oh-one holds the golden key
Twelve buckets sorting threats we cannot see
Monitor, assess, then mitigate
Supply chain secrets we orchestrate
[Outro]
In vaults of knowledge, the taxonomy reigns
Protecting the secrets that flow through our veins
