RunSafe Identify
RunSafe Identify generates Software Bill of Materials (SBOMs) for embedded systems, identifies known vulnerabilities present in software and the risk from yet to be identified unknown vulnerabilities, and quantifies your available risk reductions.
SBOM Generation
RunSafe Identify generates detailed SBOMs for embedded systems at software build time, eliminating the need for binary analysis. Build-time SBOMs give full visibility into your software components with a full dependency tree and without a package manager.
With a complete SBOM, including C/C++ SBOM generation, organizations can quickly identify potential vulnerabilities in software components, understand common vulnerabilities across product lines, and take action to prioritize mitigation.
RunSafe Identify integrates effortlessly with your CI/CD pipeline for continuous security throughout development.
“From our perspective, adding RunSafe means we have more opportunity to shrink the attack surface and reduce overall risks for our customers since security is now already built into our product.”
Enhanced Security Posture
By generating SBOMs, identifying vulnerabilities, and quantifying ways to reduce the attack surface, RunSafe provides a robust security framework for embedded systems.
Regulatory
Compliance
RunSafe simplifies the compliance process by ensuring adherence to industry standards and regulatory requirements.
Operational
Efficiency
RunSafe automates the identification and management of security risks, allowing organizations to focus on innovation and development without compromising security.
Vulnerability Identification and Quantification
RunSafe’s solution includes advanced tools for assessing vulnerabilities within embedded systems. By identifying weaknesses in libraries, components, and packages, RunSafe enables organizations to better understand their security posture and prioritize risks based on severity, exploitability, and impact on the system.
Not only does this proactive approach help prevent potential exploits by addressing vulnerabilities before attackers can target them, it also streamlines the process of software updates and patches, ensuring that embedded systems remain secure throughout their lifecycle.
Risk Reduction Quantification
RunSafe focuses on minimizing the attack surface of embedded systems. This involves reducing the number of potential entry points for attackers. RunSafe Identify quantifies your risk reductions, enabling your organization to prioritize its security efforts and measure the effectiveness of your security strategies.
This process enhances overall security and helps demonstrate compliance and governance to stakeholders. For example, using SBOMs to conduct regular risk assessments and identify vulnerabilities is a proactive approach that aligns with standards like ISO/IEC 27001, which emphasizes continuous risk management.
