Our take
Widespread adoption of technologies such as the Internet of Things and embedded systems are on the rise. However, this surge in technological integration brings with it a growing concern over potential vulnerabilities within the supply chain. Addressing this issue head-on is Finite State, specializing in providing security solutions for infrastructure and connected devices, primarily by offering comprehensive and transparent insights into the supply chains and files associated with firmware production.
The spotlight on cyber threats has increasingly turned to firmware, with a staggering five-fold rise in firmware attacks in recent years. Finite State asserts that its approach to countering this escalating threat is unparalleled in the market, potentially giving the company a significant advantage over other startups in the competition. Finite State has already carved out a distinctive reputation, notably through its 2019 exposé highlighting numerous vulnerabilities in Huawei's networking products.
Despite the growing awareness among enterprises regarding the looming threat of firmware attacks, reports suggest that most companies are currently underinvesting in firmware security. However, as the threat landscape evolves, a shift in this trend is anticipated. Should this change materialize, Finite State's offerings position the company to capitalize on emerging opportunities in the realm of firmware security.
