NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Red Balloon Security, the leader in embedded device security, today announced an expanded and customizable set of offerings for critical infrastructure and a range of industries including energy, industrial control systems (ICS), building management systems (BMS), automotive, and telecommunications. Embedded devices and firmware have proven to be an attractive target for threat actors given the disruption and damage that can be caused and the multiple ways vulnerabilities can be exploited. In 2019, the National Vulnerability Database reported that firmware vulnerabilities increased more than 30% year-over-year and are now becoming staples in the arsenals of nation-state APTs. By injecting malicious code into the firmware of electrical grid devices, industrial control devices or automotive ECUs, either though the supply chain or directly into deployed devices, bad actors can compromise critical systems, enabling espionage and sabotaging campaigns. Red Balloon Security is launching a portfolio of solutions combining its world-class expertise with its advanced suite of technologies for embedded devices. The core components of its Embedded Defense suite will be available as individual offerings, including Firmware Hardening, Embedded Security Consulting, Runtime Protection, and Runtime Monitoring. This provides organizations with the option to choose the security capabilities that best fit the needs of their enterprise, delivering tailored guidance and customized protections for customers.
