Pilot Security

Internet-of-things (IoT) devices are rapidly growing in number and impact. These devices affect all aspects of life from our homes to the stability of our power grid and medical systems. Though the proliferation of IoT creates new opportunities, it also creates new targets and introduces risks for consumers and businesses. In particular, devices which previously had small footprints and limited capabilities now have broad attack surfaces; vulnerabilities in them may impact human trust, safety, and security. Current methods to secure embedded devices are complex and ineffective. Both the makers and purchasers of devices must have verifiable information to trust their security. Pilot Security automates this process, uncovering security vulnerabilities about all aspects of IoT device operations. The technology uses advanced automated analytic techniques we developed over years of manual cybersecurity reverse engineering combined with large public vulnerability databases to identify the most pressing security issues, inform the user, and provide actionable recommendations on remediation.
