Secure Updates
Through systematic update management
The obligation to address security vulnerabilities requires update management. This involves, on the one hand, technical issues such as how updates can be securely delivered to customers and installed on their systems.
On the other hand, there are also organizational considerations, such as whether updates should be provided on a regular schedule or as needed, how service downtime can be minimized as much as possible, or how to handle customer-specific customizations. Especially with specialized software (e.g., in industrial production facilities, in the aerospace industry, or in healthcare), different measures are required than those provided by a standard procedure.
Fraunhofer SIT advises companies on the development or improvement of technical and organizational aspects of update management. Feel free to contact our experts by email or give us a call.
