Cybersecurity & Open Source Software

Rust is a very hype programming language that provides good practices to reduce potential attacks opportunities, nevertheless it is far from being perfect. This talk proposes a summary of our lessons learnt while moving some of our embedded code from C/C++ to Rust. It highlights some of difficulties Rust as a language introduces when dealing with low level and hardware components. It also exposes some of the options we implemented to reduce SBOM dependencies and address CVE tracking and CI infrastructure.
