New Security Challenges Require New Solutions

Are customers reporting cybersecurity issues with your products before you know about them?

Are they asking when you will have them fixed?

Is your new security team rolling out new cybersecurity policies but you have no tools to comply?

Are customers wondering why you don’t publish cybersecurity policies like competitors do?

Get ahead of your customers’ requirements and competition with Timesys Vigiles.

What is Vigiles Vulnerability Management?

Like the famed ancient Roman city watchmen for which it is named, Vigiles is a tool that constantly watches to keep things secure.

The Timesys Vigiles suite of tools enables you to generate and analyze a Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) for your embedded system software built on Linux.

Vigiles is optimized for embedded systems and provides a complete vulnerability lifecycle management tool: discovery, prioritization, triaging, remediation, compliance and on-going monitoring/alerts.

Why Vigiles?

First SCA solution optimized for embedded systems, native integration with Yocto, Buildroot, Timesys Factory.

Automatically generates remediation information including patches and updates for your software components.

Removes any vulnerabilities affecting features not being used by your product, saving you valuable time.

Monitors for your Linux Kernel and U-Boot configuration as well as packages and libraries used in your specific project.

Filters reported vulnerabilities so you can focus on only those that affect the exact Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) used to produce the bootable firmware images on your product.

Enables automatic alerts for non-authorized license type and for CVEs exceeding CVSS score threshold

Why do I need SCA specialized for embedded systems?
