This white paper summarizes the different implications and considerations surrounding code coverage for safety-critical programs, along with code coverage requirements mandated by four major standards governing safety-critical software in various industry contexts. First, we discuss the emergence of safety-critical software as part of modern systems. Next, we define code coverage analysis, how it works, and why it is used as […]

There has never been a better time to build embedded products. A profusion of open-source software stacks, community resources, silicon components, and electronics assemblies have made it possible to develop polished, feature-rich products in a minimal amount of time. Yet paradoxically, the abundance of technology choices without clear and definitive selection criteria can derail development into non-productive research projects and […]

As companies strive to gain a competitive advantage by delivering new software features faster, reliability of application services often suffers. Software delivery driven by Service Level Objectives (SLOs) can help identify potential issues before SLA violations occur and reputation or monetary damage is incurred. Using a shift-left approach to reliability is even better and will help amplify the benefits of […]

From articles to hackathons, cybercriminals are resorting to crowdsourcing to find more ways to exploit systems. In this article, we tackle these contests, explore their results, and anticipate their possible impacts on the work of cybersecurity defenders.

In the beginning of 2022, many companies around the world began calling for most, if not all, of their workforce to return to the office on a full-time basis, a phenomenon aptly referred to as “the Great Return.” Meanwhile, some companies embraced permanent hybrid work or remote setups. This diffused labor pool, together with a widened digital attack surface, has […]

The technological leaps of the Fourth Industrial Revolution may have made production machinery more efficient, but these have also put manufacturers in the crosshairs of cybercriminals. Our research tackles the risks that computer numerical control (CNC) machines now face as they’re integrated into today’s networked factories.

Zero Trust is an “always-on everywhere” approach to security. It is a contrast to traditional legacy trust models in which security is “sometimes present in some cases.” Legacy trust models were a low-cost, high-value approach to increasing an attacker’s efforts, but in an era of attacker automation and supply chain compromise, that is no longer true. Legacy trust models are […]

As you build and scale the next generation of cloud applications and adopt cloud-native technologies such as containers and Kubernetes, you’d find that traditional approaches to data analytics no longer work. DataSet is a cloud-native enterprise data platform for all data – live or historical, at any scale. Join leaders and builders at DataSet, industry experts, and our customers to […]
