Enhance product security with effective risk-based vulnerability management

ETAS’ Secure BOM creation provides expert guidance for developing security-relevant BOMs. These BOMs accurately document all necessary components, including hardware, software, and cryptographic materials, along with product-specific configuration information.

Scope of services:

• Use case definition:
  Use cases are defined to ensure BOMs meet organizational requirements.
• Guideline creation:
  Comprehensive guidelines for BOM creation are developed, including preferred format (e.g., CycloneDX) and essential fields required to fulfill the defined use cases.
• Concept definition:
  A concept for BOM generation, pertaining to proprietary products and self-developed components, is established to ensure consistency and clarity in documentation.
• Implementation:
  Support is provided for implementing the new BOM concept to fulfill the defined requirements for automation.
• Review:
  Existing BOMs are reviewed to ensure they adhere to preferred formats that enable vulnerability identification.

ETAS’ Vulnerability management process enhances an organization's security posture by defining, refining, and establishing a robust vulnerability management process. Comprehensive support is provided to both central and product teams to ensure effective execution of this process.

Scope of services:

• Status evaluation:
  The existing vulnerability management framework is assessed, and stakeholder feedback is gathered to identify areas for improvement.
• Process definition:
