2024年6月18日 - 10:00PM
Karamba Security, a world leader in end-to-end product security,
today announced the signing of a production agreement for its
XGuard software, with Ziehm-Orthoscan, Inc., a manufacturer of
industry-leading mini C-arm imaging devices specifically designed
for orthopedic procedures. The agreement enables Ziehm-Orthoscan,
Inc. to secure its imaging devices and comply with recent FDA
cybersecurity regulations.
Ziehm-Orthoscan, Inc. sought a software solution that would meet
stringent regulatory requirements and harden its devices against
cyberattacks. The company selected Karamba Security’s XGuard
software for its deep security features, such as allowlisting and
data protection, to meet regulatory compliance. An important factor
in selecting XGuard was its seamless integration, resulting in
retrofitting Ziehm-Orthoscan's existing devices and meeting
customer demand, motivated by the FDA regulation. XGuard functions
as a bolt-on security layer to the device firmware and does not
require R&D changes or product delays.
“Protecting our customers’ safety and privacy is a key mission
for Ziehm-Orthoscan, Inc.,” said Robert Selke, VP Engineering. “We
were looking for a solution that could be seamlessly applied to our
products without delaying time to market, while providing strong
security measures. We have found those qualities in Karamba
Security’s XGuard, and we are excited to team up with this
high-growth company.”
Karamba Security’s XGuard Suite is a comprehensive set of
embedded software modules designed to address the evolving
cybersecurity threats faced by IoT devices, such as automotive ECUs
and medical devices. By integrating XGuard into its imaging
devices, Orthoscan has implemented essential security features
without disrupting the development or release schedules. XGuard
software was applied as a bolt-on layer to Ziehm-Orthoscan
firmware, which utilizes Ubuntu, a free, open-source operating
system.
Key features of Karamba Security’s XGuard Suite include:
- XGuard
Device Security - added to existing firmware, provides
critical security functions for runtime integrity without
interfering with development timelines or requiring any R&D
interference

through customizable dashboards
