Right before we are going to @BlackHatEvents and the #hackersummercamp in Las Vegay we released our #BHUSA edition of EMBA (v2.0.3). This time with a huge amount of refactoring, unit tests and we are now able to handle legacy systems much better. github.com/e-m-b-a/emba...

Jump, jump, jump around with more than 3500 Github stars ... We did it and EMBA reached the next milestone. Thank you all for using/staring and supporting EMBA. Keep on going and build your own #SBOM and make #firmware and #IoT more #secure with EMBA github.com/e-m-b-a/emba

How to use #AI for your automated #firmware security analysis with EMBA? Check our setup article with a step by step guide on how to get everything up and running. No more cloud AI for your critical firmware pieces github.com/e-m-b-a/emba...

Security Paper alert: "Anchors that Don’t Lift: Understanding Supply Chain Driven Kernel Lock-In and Governance-Mediated Mitigation Strategies in SOHO Devices" with some EMBA shoutout. Thank you for using EMBA for your analysis experience. arxiv.org/html/2606.11...

EMBA is now for 6 years in the wild and we are very proud of the big 2k release. 2000 PR/Issues/Discussions is quite cool. Beside reaching this milestone we have completely reworked the #AI integration for you next #IoT/#firmware/#hacking experience - github.com/e-m-b-a/emba...

Paper alert: A Multi-Interface Firmware Acquisition and Validation Methodology for Low-Cost Consumer Drones: A Case Study on Three Holy Stone Platforms. Thank you for using EMBA - arxiv.org/html/2605.11...

We made a quick introduction video for the new EMBA interactive firmware map feature. Check it out here youtu.be/cxbKShSYIj8?...

The highlight of this EMBA release is the all new interactor module for a nice and interactive dependency map - Check it out here github.com/e-m-b-a/emba...

What a great time. The next paper that is mentioning EMBA. This time they try to use it in Android Automotive environments. Not an area where we used EMBA in the past. Probably we need to improve www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Great to see that big players like @Forescout are using EMBA for their research in the field of #firmware #IoT #SBOM - Check the paper and do it the same - www.forescout.com/resources/br...

Another paper was released during christmas time. This time it tries to understand EMBA a bit better with "Comparing the Use of EMBA for IoT Firmware Security Analysis on Cloud Services and Standalone Servers" Check it out while we dig into it www.preprints.org/manuscript/2...

It is always nice to see EMBA references popping up in some papers. Check "Cyber Physical Security and Interoperability Challenges in IoT Based Smart Building Systems A Narrative Critical Review" here ijisrt.com/assets/uploa...

woa ... This is so great! Heise online article about the EMBA v2.0.0 release. Thank you @ixmagazin.bsky.social for testing EMBA and writing this nice article
