BLUERISC INC — Department of Homeland Security SBIR Phase II: H-SB014.2-002

BLUERISC INC — SBIR Phase II award from Department of Homeland Security.

Phase II SBIR prototype / development signal

  • Phase II is where Department of Homeland Security funds deeper R&D after feasibility. Incumbents with Phase II history are serious competitors on adjacent topics.
  • Use this award as past-performance context and to map customer organizations for STRATFI/TACFI-style transition planning.
  • Obligated amount $999,995 is consistent with substantial Phase II-scale effort; compare to related awards from the same agency.

Description

BlueRISC's proposed solution provides a fundamentally new approach to automated embedded software/firmware analysis relying on a novel cross-binary/firmware differential exploitability analysis framework. The solution is able to identify newly added potentially exploitable paths associated with zero/n-day vulnerabilities, characterize new functionality with respect to its potentially malicious nature while also providing reporting and visualization with respect to the updated attack surfaces of the firmware during the software development lifecycle. The solution is CPU and operating system agnostic and thus widely applicable. Initial sectors that will be targeted include government and defense as well as commercial verticals such as the automotive and energy/critical infrastructure industries.
