Oxfordshire, UK January 2022: Direct Insight, the UK-based, technical systems integrator and reseller of system-on-module (SoM) and other embedded systems including Blackberry® QNX®, is now supplying BlackBerry® Jarvis® 2.0, a software composition analysis tool from QNX that enables designers to detect and list open-source software and software licenses within their embedded systems as well as their cybersecurity vulnerabilities and exposures.
Comments David Pashley, Direct Insight’s MD: “Cyber-security is rightly a major issue right now, but it can be hard to track all the open-source code that is typically used in an embedded design when there is a complex supply chain. New regulations such as the U.S. government’s Executive Order on Improving the Nation’s Cybersecurity or directions from WP.29, the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe’s (UNECE’s) Sustainable Transport Division working party covering international automotive cybersecurity require vendors to provide software bills of materials (SBOMs) and demonstrate cybersecurity management. This can be a very onerous task.”
BlackBerry Jarvis, available through Direct Insight, a BlackBerry QNX Distributor & Value-Added Integrator, enables designers to detect and analyze the software composition of their products by producing an SBOM, without having to access source code, much quicker that it is possible manually. This ability to efficiently produce an accurate SBOM is the foundation of the cybersecurity management required by emerging regulations.
Dr. Ralf Speth, Former CEO, Jaguar Land Rover is quoted as saying: “BlackBerry Jarvis addresses the software cybersecurity needs of the automotive industry. In our independent study, Jarvis delivered excellent efficiencies in time-to-market, significantly reducing the time to security assess code from thirty days to seven minutes.”
