The IT Nerd

RunSafe Security today announced that the RunSafe Security Platform is now available on Iron Bank, the Department of Defense’s (DoD) hardened repository of pre-assessed and approved development, security, and operations (DevSecOps) solutions. As a verified Iron Bank publisher, RunSafe Security’s platform will provide DoD teams with access to Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) generation, supply chain risk management (SCRM), and code protection within a trusted ecosystem.

Iron Bank is built to help defense programs quickly deploy new tools without spending months navigating approval processes. Every product listed on Iron Bank goes through rigorous security assessments, container hardening, and compliance validation. Because the containers are scanned daily for vulnerabilities, DoD teams gain access to resilient tools that keep the software supply chain secure and allow software to be deployed faster. With RunSafe listed as a verified publisher, DoD teams and integrators can now access the company’s platform directly from Iron Bank, making it easier for defense programs to integrate.

The RunSafe Security Platform addresses some of the toughest challenges in embedded software security. Through the company’s platform on Iron Bank, organizations can access:

• C/C++ SBOM Generation – RunSafe provides the authoritative build-time SBOM generator for embedded systems and C/C++ projects. Automating SBOM generation is critical for meeting DoD requirements, especially for unstructured C/C++ code where traditional SBOM tools fall short.
• Supply Chain Risk Management – SCRM capabilities enable DoD teams to take action, not just generate a static SBOM. Teams can monitor for new vulnerabilities and check license enforcement and provenance. Additionally, RunSafe’s binary analysis identifies potential zero-day risks, helping organizations to rely not only on CVEs but also to quantify the risk of future weaknesses that attackers could target.
• Runtime Code Protection – RunSafe hardens binaries against exploitation through moving target defense, such as Runtime Application Self Protection (RASP), defending weapons systems at runtime to increase resilience. This resilience applies to future zero days as well, providing fielded weapon systems protection between software upgrade cycles that can be two years apart.

For organizations working to modernize DevSecOps practices, automate SBOM generation, or secure embedded systems without code rewrites, RunSafe containers are available on Iron Bank by logging in and accessing the Iron Bank repository here.
