Crossware helps OEM and product engineering teams implement embedded security across the BSP, middleware and application, with tests and traceability for the agreed requirements.
Bring a new platform, an OEM cybersecurity matrix or a specific security gap. We allocate the requirements, implement the agreed controls and verify their behaviour on the target system. Hardware capabilities and product risks shape the design.
Integrate the hardware root of trust and image authentication into the boot chain. Define how the platform responds when verification fails.
Authenticate software packages and check integrity before activation. Design fallback or dual-bank recovery around the target hardware and update path.
Integrate hardware-backed cryptographic services where supported, including provisioning, non-exportable keys and controlled key deletion.
Restrict debug and service interfaces, remove development protocols and reduce exposed services in production builds.
Protect diagnostics, service-tool access, communication and stored data. Integrate authentication, role checks and secure application states.
Apply scoped fuzzing, static analysis, white-box and penetration testing to external interfaces and trust boundaries.
Bootloader, HSM drivers, production interfaces, peripheral firmware and update partitions.
Cryptographic APIs, diagnostics, key lifecycle, authenticated storage and connectivity services.
Secure coding, role-based access, update user flows and protected state transitions.
Two projects illustrate different parts of the embedded security scope: protected administration and updates on Embedded Linux, and a restricted operator environment on Android.
The Embedded Device Management Platform connects a React interface through a Drogon C++ gateway to controlled host services. Browser-facing components are isolated from privileged device operations.
The Android Intercom Master Station turns commercial video-phone hardware into a dedicated operator device. The application becomes the launcher and dialler, keeping the operator within the intended product workflows.
A requirement allocation, gap list and delivery estimate to plan the engineering work.
Target a defined need such as secure boot, HSM integration or diagnostic access control.
Coordinate controls across layers, or commission a scoped review of existing software.
Share your target platform, software stack and security requirements. We will define the implementation scope and the evidence your team needs.
