Sternum:获融$6.5M 物联网安全检测
【200915 TechCrunch】If we have learned anything from the mass production of cheap internet-connected devices it is that security was an afterthought. Default passwords are the norm and security flaws aren’t patched, leaving entire fleets of smart devices vulnerable to attack.
【谷歌翻译 未经校对】如果我们从廉价生产的互联网连接设备的大量生产中学到了什么,那就是安全是事后的想法。默认密码是标准密码,并且没有修补安全漏洞,因此整个智能设备都容易受到攻击。
But one Israeli security startup is taking a different approach to protect vulnerable Internet of Things devices.
但是一家以色列安全初创公司正在采取另一种方法来保护易受攻击的物联网设备。
Sternum, headquartered in Tel Aviv, provides an embedded integrity verification technology, known as EIV, which verifies that the app hasn’t been maliciously altered in some way. Its technology detects code vulnerabilities to prevent attacks before they are exploited. Its advanced detection system, or ADS, brings real-time threat detection, allowing companies to respond to attacks in real time.
总部位于特拉维夫的Sternum提供了一种称为EIV的嵌入式完整性验证技术,该技术可以验证该应用程序没有经过某种方式的恶意更改。它的技术可以检测代码漏洞,以防止在被利用之前进行攻击。其先进的检测系统或ADS带来了实时威胁检测,使公司能够实时响应攻击。
It’s a novel idea for when there is no other way to secure a vulnerable device.
如果没有其他方法可以保护易受攻击的设备,这是一个新颖的主意。
Earlier this year, Sternum was first with a fix for a new wave of vulnerabilities that hit millions of Internet of Things devices. Dubbed Ripple20, the vulnerabilities allow hackers to hijack potentially hundreds of millions of affected devices.
今年早些时候,Sternum首次修复了一系列新漏洞,攻击了数百万个物联网设备。这些被称为Ripple20的漏洞使黑客能够劫持潜在的数亿个受影响的设备。
“Patching vulnerabilities is an endless game,” Sternum’s founder and chief executive Natali Tshuva told TechCrunch.
Sternum的创始人兼首席执行官Natali Tshuva告诉TechCrunch:“修补漏洞是无尽的游戏。”
“Unlike many other solutions, we are not focused on patching every vulnerability on a device. We are solely focused on the exploitation stage, or the point at which the hacker takes advantage of a vulnerability to execute an attack,” she said.
与许多其他解决方案不同,我们并非专注于修补设备上的每个漏洞。她说:“我们仅专注于利用阶段,即黑客利用漏洞执行攻击的阶段。”
Tshuva’s roots are as a security researcher, where she found several previously undiscovered vulnerabilities in Linux, Android and other embedded systems.
Tshuva的根源是一名安全研究人员,在那里她发现了Linux,Android和其他嵌入式系统中一些以前未发现的漏洞。
“I realized that there are real technological and market challenges to securing these devices properly,” she told TechCrunch. “I wanted to apply my know-how in cybersecurity, research, product and managing talented R&D teams to create innovative solutions that will truly solve the problem, end-to-end.”
她告诉TechCrunch:“我意识到正确保护这些设备存在着真正的技术和市场挑战。” “我想将自己的专业知识运用到网络安全,研究,产品和管理人才的研发团队中,以创造出能够端到端真正解决问题的创新解决方案。”
It’s a bet that’s paying off.
这是一个成功的赌注。
The company revealed its $6.5 million Series A round, the company announced Tuesday. The round was led by Square Peg with participation from Merle Hinrich and European venture firm BTOV.
该公司周二宣布,该公司公布了其650万美元的A轮融资。本轮由Square Peg牵头,Merle Hinrich和欧洲风险投资公司BTOV参与。
Philippe Schwartz, a partner at Square Peg, said he was “impressed with Sternum’s innovative products and diverse team, whose technologies will power our connected future with uncompromising security protection and rich, data-driven insights.”
Square Peg的合伙人Philippe Schwartz说:“ Sternum的创新产品和多元化的团队给他留下了深刻的印象,他们的技术将以不妥协的安全保护和丰富的数据驱动见解,为我们互联的未来提供动力。”
