Firmware attacks are on the rise, but many businesses are uncertain about how to monitor its runtime or even gain visibility into this level of their device operation. Red Balloon Securityโs core offering can address this disadvantageย and ensure your devices are protected from attack โ today and through many years of service.ย
ย
With Symbiote, you can choose to block, reboot or alert your team when an attack is detected. It can deploy to your firmware in minutes, without necessary access to source code as an OS-agnostic, real time and host-based defense.

Symbiote is the foundational Red Balloon technology. Created in 2011, it is an OS-agnostic product, which means it is effective for any industry or product category that relies on embedded devices. It is compatible with any ECU, gateway, central processing unit (CPU), firmware or hardware platform or operating system
ย
Symbiote Defense keeps embedded devices safeย by constantly checking the integrity of the code and memory at the firmware level. In essence, it keeps all authorized software running on the system andย prevents exploits that depend on executing unauthorized codes or commands.
With Symbiote, you can continuously monitor in real time for any modifications to critical conditions of the device, including corruption of device memory, control-flow, and processes. Symbiote also embeds defensive payloads in device firmware to protect your firmware against attacks.

While many modern computing systems are adopting forms of load-time integrity, Symbiote goes a step beyond and offers real-time, continuous integrity attestation.
Symbiote does not require modifications to the source code of the device, or additional hardware resources.
Symbiote does not affect the functionality, performance or speed of the device it is protecting.
Symbiote is currently deployed on devices with HP and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and used under contract by the U.S. Department of Defense for devices in various industry applications, including electrical grid, telecommunications, aerospace, and COTS products.
Monitor code and memory usage to detect attacks, regardless of the vulnerability, for protection against zero days.
Embed security technology that supports the resiliency of your device firmware with runtime integrity protection at the host-level, now and into the future.
