RunSafe Protect
Automated runtime code protection for embedded systems via memory relocation (LFR)
RunSafe Protect Description
RunSafe Protect is a runtime code protection solution designed for embedded systems and devices. It uses memory relocation techniques — specifically a form of moving target defense — to harden binaries against memory-based exploits such as buffer overflows and code injection attacks, without requiring access to source code. The product operates by randomizing the memory layout of compiled binaries (a process called Load-time Function Randomization, which is a vast improvement on Address Space Layout Randomization), making it significantly harder for attackers to exploit known memory corruption vulnerabilities. This approach is applied at build time and does not require changes to source code or the underlying operating system. RunSafe Protect is part of the broader RunSafe Security platform, which also includes RunSafe Identify (for SBOM generation and vulnerability identification) and RunSafe Monitor (for runtime monitoring). The Protect module focuses specifically on automated runtime code protection. Target industries include automotive, medical devices, aerospace and defense, industrial automation, high-tech manufacturing, energy, and railway. Relevant use cases include: - Embedded device security - OT/ICS device security - Military embedded systems - Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) - Electronic Control Units (ECUs) - Connected vehicle security - Medical device FDA compliance - Secure flight control systems The product is aimed at product security teams, developers and engineers, product leaders, and industrial asset owners who need to harden embedded software against runtime exploitation without modifying source code.
