Interos Enhances Industry-First Operational Resilience Score

Interos Inc | March 10, 2023

On March 9, 2023, Interos, one of the leading operational resilience companies creating the world's strongest, safest, and most secure supply chains, announced the introduction of its upgraded cyber risk factor, a part of its i-ScoreTM measurement of operational resilience. The Interos i-Score is the first of its kind resilience score that assesses the health of extended supply chains against multiple risk factors, such as restriction, financial, geopolitical, operations/catastrophe, ESG, and cyber. The i-Score update includes an innovative cyber behavior model to detect potentially harmful cyber activity irrespective of public disclosure, commercial cyber ratings, threat assessment (Mitre ATT&CK®), vulnerability information (CVEs), regulatory compliance, cyber events, and operating country issues into a single score. This advancement directs cyber risk and procurement managers to their multi-tiered vendors most exposed to ransomware, breaches, data leakage, and other cyber-attacks carried out by malicious attackers who target suppliers concealed in the extended global supply chain. Interos's 2022 Resilience study of 1,500 cybersecurity and procurement leaders found that cyber incidents cause supply chain disruptions that cost businesses $37M each year. Andrea Little Limbago, SVP, Research & Analysis, Interos, said, "This is another crucial step forward in helping organizations achieve operational resilience." She further mentioned, "We've added new, proprietary models that integrate and assess data on cloud-based risk exposure, evaluate anomalous cyber behavior, measure regulatory compliance risks and more. It's designed to deliver better and faster information to CPOs partnering with CISOs — who are increasingly being held accountable for collective cyber resilience — to respond to more frequent and severe supply chain cyberattacks, with enhanced monitoring of vendors and third-party service providers."

AdaCore Launches RecordFlux

Businesswire | March 28, 2023

AdaCore, a trusted provider of software development and verification tools, today announced the launch of its new RecordFlux technology, designed to ease the development and security of binary communication protocols. The technology comprises a Domain Specific Language (DSL) to precisely describe complex binary data formats and communication protocols, and a toolset to verify specifications and generate provable SPARK code that can be executed on a target CPU. Through RecordFlux, users can define and implement complex communication protocols and prove security properties, such as memory safety, at much less cost and effort than would be possible with a manual approach. The precision of the RecordFlux DSL ensures that the specifications are unambiguous, the high-level nature of the DSL makes the specifications easily understandable by domain experts, and the expressive power of the DSL can capture the most complex real-world protocols. And since the RecordFlux code generator produces source code in the formal methods-based SPARK language, users can obtain automated proofs of a wide range of security properties in the resulting software. The net effect is more secure and reliable code, at lower cost. “Interaction between software components is governed by protocol and format specifications. Unfortunately, most specification documents are complex texts written in English which need to be translated to software implementations manually, leaving room for human error,” said Alex Senier, AdaCore’s RecordFlux Team Lead. “Logic errors and critical flaws are often poorly mitigated by the widespread use of unsafe programming languages, resulting in severe security vulnerabilities. With RecordFlux, we aim to provide a solution that saves time and money by automating provable code generation while ensuring the absence of low-level vulnerabilities like buffer overflows that attackers could exploit.” About RecordFlux RecordFlux is a toolset for creating high-assurance implementations of binary data formats and communication protocols. The technology includes a Domain Specific Language, a comprehensive toolset, and customized expert support. By using SPARK Pro, developers can take the SPARK code generated from RecordFlux specifications and automatically prove that the code is free of run-time errors and respects the original specification. Code generated by RecordFlux is also compatible with GNAT Pro Assurance, AdaCore’s complete solution for projects with the most stringent requirements for reliability, long-term maintenance, or certification. The compiler-hardening options provided by GNAT Pro Assurance can be used to mitigate further attacks on network-facing protocol-handling code. About AdaCore Founded in 1994, AdaCore supplies software development and verification tools for mission-critical, safety-critical, and security-critical systems.
