ONEKEY – one of Europe’s leading specialists in automated IoT/OT security and compliance analysis – and CERTAINITY GmbH – the European cybersecurity consultancy – will collaborate on future cybersecurity research activities. The focus of this partnership will be connected smart devices and industrial control systems (ICS). Research findings will be published on a regular basis.

Digitalization creates tremendous opportunities for businesses and society. At the same time, it introduces significant risks related to cyber espionage, manipulation, and privacy. As cyberattacks continue to grow in sophistication, the overall threat landscape across Europe has steadily intensified over recent years.

The research partnership between ONEKEY and CERTAINITY will focus on identifying and analyzing security risks affecting connected smart devices and industrial control systems. The selected research targets will be chosen by ONEKEY in accordance with its responsible disclosure policy.

I am excited that, together with the leading company in OT and IoT firmware analysis, we will address current and future cybersecurity challenges for critical infrastructures. Through this collaboration, we aim to make a significant contribution to improving cybersecurity as a whole.

Michael Brunner, PhD. – Partner, Head of Security Engineering, CERTAINITY GmbH

ONEKEY is one of Europe’s leading specialists in automated security and compliance analysis for Industrial IoT (IIoT), Industrial Control Systems (ICS), Operational Technology (OT), and Internet of Things (IoT) devices.

Using automatically generated Digital Twins and Software Bills of Materials (SBOMs), ONEKEY analyzes firmware for critical security vulnerabilities and compliance issues—without requiring access to the source code, the physical device, or the network itself. Security vulnerabilities and attack vectors can therefore be identified within minutes and remediated efficiently.

Easily integrated into software development and procurement processes, the platform enables manufacturers, distributors, and users of IoT technologies to continuously verify the security and compliance of their products throughout the entire product lifecycle. Leading organizations such as Swisscom, VERBUND AG, and Zyxel already rely on the platform today. Universities and research institutions can use the ONEKEY platform free of charge for research and educational purposes.

CERTAINITY supports its customers as an independent cybersecurity consultancy across a broad range of security disciplines. Its service portfolio covers strategic and operational cybersecurity consulting, offensive and defensive security services, process consulting, and the design and implementation of sustainable security architectures.
