Dahua secures its IoT

July 2017 Editor's Choice, Surveillance, News & Events

Dahua Technology announced its selection of Synopsys to enhance the security of its Internet of Things (IoT) devices and solutions. By implementing Synopsys’ portfolio of solutions and services, Dahua is strengthening its offerings, building security and quality into its software development lifecycle (SDLC) and supply chain.

“We are committed to delivering to our global customer base – from residential to enterprise – the highest quality and most secure Internet-connected devices,” said Fu Liquan, chairman of Dahua Technology. “Synopsys’ comprehensive solutions and services allow us to minimise software-related business risks by building security into the development process, which reduces the vulnerabilities that can jeopardise our products.”

Dahua has implemented Synopsys tools to address software security and quality issues throughout the SDLC using multiple technologies, including static analysis, fuzz testing and software composition analysis. Dahua Technology has also joined the Building Security in Maturity Model (BSIMM) community and will undergo a BSIMM assessment, a comprehensive benchmarking process that provides an objective, data-driven view into its current software security initiative.

Using the BSIMM results, the company will establish a baseline measurement of its software security program, which will be used to guide its efforts to continuously improve the security and quality of its products over time.
