    Hi All,

    ISO publishes ISO/TR 23576:2020 Blockchain and distributed ledger technologies - Security management of digital asset custodians

    This document discusses the threats, risks, and controls related to:

    - systems that provide digital asset custodian services and/or exchange services to their customers (consumers and businesses) and management of security when an incident occurs;

    - asset information (including the signature key of the digital asset) that a custodian of digital assets manages.

    This document is addressed to digital asset custodians that manage signature keys associated with digital asset accounts. In such a case, certain specific recommendations apply.

    The following is out of scope of this document:

    - core security controls of blockchain and DLT systems;

    - business risks of digital asset custodians;

    - segregation of customer's assets;

    - governance and management issues.
