UL has launched a new SafeCyber Digital Security Platform, a suite of solutions allowing device manufacturers, suppliers and systems integrators, to take charge of connected ecosystems.
UL’s SafeCyber Digital Security Platform seeks to mitigate cybersecurity threats facing IoT makers, installers and users.
“The proliferation of connected devices has unlocked immense new economic potential, but it has also introduced a flurry of cybersecurity risks that can materially impact businesses,” says Jukka Makinen, managing director of the Identity Management and Security division at UL.
“SafeCyber helps organizations holistically understand and assess risk, allowing both new and existing assets to be designed and maintained to conform with the latest cybersecurity legislation and best practices.”
As part of the launch, UL has introduced its Maturity Path capability, a solution that provides device manufacturers, suppliers and system integrators with a maturity assessment for connected device security to build sustainable product security governance and processes.
Meanwhile, UL Firmware Check will provide stakeholders with a security check on firmware implementations currently under development, whereas Field Monitoring will enable those organizations to perform security checks on firmware already in the field at scale.
These capabilities are said to deliver detailed reporting on issues that could impact firmware security, such as:
* Software composition analysis and software bill of materials
* Known/common vulnerabilities and exposures
* Unknown vulnerabilities (zero-day vulnerabilities)
* Compliance analysis against supported standards and guidelines, including UL’s IoT Security Rating Program, ETSI 303 645, ISO 21434 and IEC 62443 4-2.
