Our approach

Capabilities

Whether you’re engineering and launching a new product or purchasing a critical product, the security decisions you make influence the safety and security of your employees, customers, and business.

Our product embedded systems security team was founded as Inverse Path in 2005. We provide advanced technical consultancy to some of the world’s most challenging and critical industries, including automotive, electronics and semiconductor manufacturing, industrial control systems, maritime, and aviation. For over a decade, our capabilities have been trusted to secure standard and fully bespoke products including low-level electronics, hardware devices, firmware, operating systems, software applications, fully integrated cyber-physical systems (CPS), and more. 

Our consultancy is bespoke and outcome-focused. Organizations choose us as a partner to collaboratively build and test the security of their products, because we’re practitioners ourselves; we develop our own products, build our own custom hardware & software testing suites, and deliver original technical research.

Our work in product embedded systems security has helped defend the lives of millions, ensured the safety of vehicles, improved the resilience of critical infrastructure and the integrity of electronic components, and protected corporate trade secrets and intellectual property. 

Services & solutions

Product Security Review

Analyze the security of hardware and software products in-depth, beyond the capability of a penetration test or vulnerability assessment. Product Security Reviews provide partial, aspect-specific reviews of a device (e.g., applications or device firmware), up to full-device reviews of integrated systems, including hardware components.

Embedded systems advisory services

Assess the risk profile of your products through technical risk assessments, threat modelling, design reviews, and secure design consulting. Our embedded systems advisory service offers different approaches to help you understand where your products expose users and how to make them resilient by design.
