Firmware

Computer programs and data stored in hardware – typically in read-only memory (ROM) or programmable read-only memory (PROM) – such that the programs and data cannot be dynamically written or modified during execution of the programs.

See the following for more information:

CNSSI 4009-2015 from IETF RFC 4949 Ver 2

NIST SP 1800-10B under Firmware from CNSSI 4009-2015

NIST SP 800-37 Rev. 2 from CNSSI 4009-2015

NIST SP 800-53A Rev. 5 from CNSSI 4009-2015

The material physical components of an information system. See firmware and software.

Computer programs (which are stored in and executed by computer hardware) and associated data (which also is stored in the hardware) that may be dynamically written or modified during execution.

See CNSSI 4009-2015 under software from IETF RFC 4949 Ver 2 for more information.

Software that is included in read-only memory (ROM).
