About Fuzzware
Fuzzware provides security testing for embedded software without needing physical hardware. It rehosts firmware into a virtual environment, so teams can test binaries directly, even closed-source ones, without source code. The platform automates fuzzing across the whole system, not just isolated parts, to find vulnerabilities that appear in real execution. It serves medical devices, automotive systems, critical infrastructure, and smart IoT devices. For medical devices, it helps validate safety-critical firmware and meet FDA and EU MDR requirements. For automotive, it secures ECUs and in-vehicle controllers. For critical infrastructure, it analyses complex embedded systems like smart meters. For IoT, it protects connected devices by testing against attack scenarios. Fuzzware generates structured security reports with reproducible inputs and severity classification, making it easier for engineers to fix issues. It supports continuous security by running tests on every release, fitting into CI-driven workflows. The company says it has helped secure millions of embedded devices and is backed by research and innovation programs.
