Record Year for Vulnerabilities: How to Bring More Secure Products to Market

The total number of reported vulnerabilities has reached a new record in 2018. In this environment, how are you protecting your customers from the risk of a data breach?

Our new TRST (Threat Resistance Security Technology) Product Protection Solutions capture the industry’s best practices for building more secure devices with embedded open source systems and keeping those devices secure into the future.

With TRST, you can accelerate time-to-market for your product development while baking in security at the onset of product design. TRST also enables you to sift through thousands of Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) notifications to determine which ones apply to your devices and need to be addressed.

Learn more about the escalating flood of CVEs and the best practices for more secure products.

Monitoring and managing vulnerabilities for embedded systems built with Yocto

The Yocto Project is well known for enabling product developers to quickly and easily customize Linux for Internet of Things (IoT) devices and other embedded systems. But today’s environment is marked by heightened security concerns, skyrocketing vulnerability reports, and high-profile security breaches.

If you design, build and support products with embedded Linux using Yocto, it’s important to evaluate security of your system from the point of view of the end customer who will deploy it.

IoT Security: Don’t ship product without it

Devices connected via IoT technology are spreading across multiple industries at unprecedented rates. Widespread adoption also means security is increasingly critical.

Let’s look at some embedded system security best practices: Secure Booting, Key Management & Encryption, Auditing & Hardening, Vulnerability Management, and Secure OTA Updates.

Maintaining strong security for your IoT BSP

Security has never been more of a hot button topic than it is today. Increasingly, the focus is on the security of the Internet of Things (IoT) and the embedded systems that support these devices.

If you develop and maintain a Board Support Package (BSP) for an embedded open source system in an IoT device, how do ensure your BSP complies with the target security posture?
