LIS25-100K5 Safety Certification of Open Source Components: Are we there yet?

• Wednesday, 14 May 09:50 - 10:05
• Room: Keynote room | Floriana II

Open Source is pervasive and has come to dominate the embedded market, as well as laptops, servers and clouds. The embedded space however includes products like automobiles, medical devices, planes, etc.  where safety is a consideration.   Over the last decade, there have been multiple attempts to figure out paths to certify open source components, with limited success.   The problem isn't going away though, and in some cases becoming even more urgent as we look towards having to support products for extended periods of time under the emerging regulations (like the CRA). This talk will summarize some of the past attempts at certifying open source projects and then focus on the approaches that some projects are currently taking and starting to make progress with Security Certification authorities.
