Your Firmware is the Attack Surface. Is it Airtight?

Low-level code, firmware, OS kernels, device drivers, and bare-metal applications sit beneath everything. One exploitable flaw, and the entire stack is compromised.

The problem: traditional static analysis and software testing weren't built for this environment. They miss the bugs that matter and can never guarantee what they didn't find.

This Technical Brief examines how exhaustive static analysis closes that gap mathematically for C and C++ codebases where the stakes are highest.

What's inside:

• Why traditional tools fail on low-level code — and why the consequences are worse here than anywhere else in the stack
• How sound analysis guarantees the absence of undefined behaviors, not just what it found
• Real use cases: red team activities, continuous verification, and OS kernel validation
