How CISA’s Product Security Bad Practices Impact Product Manufacturers

In this RunSafe Security Minute, Founder and CEO Joseph Saunders dives into the importance of CISA’s product security bad practices and what they mean for product manufacturers. These bad practices highlight common pitfalls, such as using outdated software, relying on default passwords, and granting unnecessary system access—all of which can leave critical systems vulnerable to attacks.

Joseph emphasizes the need for manufacturers to address memory vulnerabilities, especially when using programming languages like C and C++. While some argue that these languages should be avoided entirely, he offers a balanced perspective: they can be used safely with proper safeguards, such as RunSafe’s innovative solutions.

RunSafe empowers manufacturers to secure their systems by addressing these risks head-on, enabling them to continue using C and C++ without compromising memory safety. Whether you’re looking to adopt memory-safe languages or enhance the security of your existing code, RunSafe provides the tools and expertise to protect critical infrastructure.

By tackling CISA’s product security bad practices, manufacturers can future-proof their products and strengthen trust with their customers. Learn how RunSafe can be your partner in delivering safer, more resilient technology.
