Wind River offers security and compliance scanning tuned for complex embedded software systems, with analysis and remediation services to help developers quickly identify and prioritize high-risk vulnerabilities and license issues. You can build higher-quality code and accelerate your time to application deployment. A professional grade security and compliance scanning service provides developers a thorough assessment of the potential risks for common vulnerabilities and compliance issues. This assessment can flag critical points of concern that require a deeper analysis to determine impact and effort to mitigate. We analyze specific platform layers including hardware, kernel, user space, libraries, and other system components. The high-risk issues are presented in a graphical and easy-to-read format, allowing a development team to get a snapshot of the health of their code.

Securing your embedded Linux platform is a full lifecycle responsibility. Ongoing monitoring and mitigation of known vulnerabilities impacting your project requires engineering resource investment, from development to deployment and throughout operational lifetime. Scanning code for CVEs and license compliance issues can help identify risks before they become a liability. Critical and high-risk vulnerabilities impacting your code must be remediated. And, because new vulnerabilities are identified every day, ongoing CVE monitoring, prioritization, and mitigation is required Wind River® offers ongoing CVE monitoring, mitigation, and management of your Linux platform throughout the software development and deployment lifecycle.

As projects mature, it can become challenging to continuously invest in the resources needed to keep software up to date. Wind River® offers full lifecycle management of your Yocto Project–based embedded Linux platform. Our team of experts can take on the ongoing responsibility of monitoring, mitigating, and managing Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs), license compliance, and software defects as they emerge. We provide the technical solutions and support you need to keep your software current, secure, and stable throughout the life of your device.

Starting an embedded Linux project with a binary supplied by a hardware vendor is the fastest and easiest way to get to a proof of concept (POC). But embedded systems typically have unique, market-specific functional requirements. Moving from a POC to a deployable product takes a lot more system architecting, feature integration, and long-term management over the entire lifecycle. Detailed planning in the initial phase is key to a successful embedded project. This planning should include full lifecycle scope, defining functional requirements and system architecture, identifying risks, and creating a detailed project plan. Wind River® offers comprehensive solution services by an experienced team of industry experts who can interpret system requirements, architect platform options, and provide recommendations for meeting business, technical, and program goals. Our engineering expertise can help you accelerate time-to-deployment, increase quality, lower risk, and ensure greater long-term project success.
