AMOS Retrospective and Testimonial by Siemens Energy

Symbolic picture for the article. The link opens the image in a large view.

Michael Messner of Siemens Energy sent us this email, reviewing a stream of AMOS projects over the years and their results:

The AMOS team this semester was fabulous! It reached all goals and improved EMBArk significantly. Communication and collaboration were really good.

Reviewing our history…

  1. The downloader for EMBA, a firmware analyzer by Siemens Energy, was started as an AMOS project
  2. EMBArk, the EMBA management dashboard and controller, also was started as an AMOS project
  3. The EMBArk orchestrator from this semester’s AMOS project adds real enterprise features
  4. We are developing these components further using students from the AMOS project

I think it is fair to say that our open source solution can compete with “professional” software often significantly more expensive than €100K.

Using EMBA, every company or developer or pen-tester can perform security analysis, including SBOM generation. And all of this is open-source software!

We are ready for the cyber resilience act!


Thank you, Mike, for the fabulous projects and for giving our students a chance to learn from you and work with industry and real requirements!
