Sectigo, a renowned provider of automated digital identity management and web security solutions, has partnered with ReFirm Labs to help device original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) ensure security and compliance. Under the agreement, Sectigo’s customers will now have access to ReFirm Lab’s firmware scanning tools to analyse device firmware and detect known vulnerabilities, out-of-date open source components, hard-code encryption keys, expired certificates, and potential zero-day vulnerabilities.

Device firmware presents a largely unprotected attack surface that hackers can use to gain access to - and move laterally within - corporate or critical infrastructure networks.
