A product security platform helps a manufacturer keep track of the security of the devices it sells, not the network it runs. It holds the software inventory for each product, watches for new vulnerabilities in those components, works out which products are affected, and produces the evidence regulators now ask for.
The pressure comes from regulation. The Cyber Resilience Act, UN R155, FDA premarket guidance and PCI PTS all expect manufacturers to monitor and fix vulnerabilities for as long as a product is supported, which turns a one-off test into an ongoing job. These are the platforms built for that work.
PCA Cervus is a device-centric vuln monitoring, and threat intelligence platform that supports SBOM analysis & SBOM validation
Product security platform for device manufacturers in automotive, medical and industrial markets, covering SBOMs, vulnerabilities, compliance and incident response.
Embedded security platform pairing build-time binary and SBOM analysis with runtime protection on Linux and RTOS devices.
Product security platform that analyses firmware and binaries and ranks vulnerabilities by whether they can actually be reached and exploited.
Builds SBOMs from compiled binaries, showing what actually executes rather than what a manifest declares.
Product cybersecurity platform for connected-device makers: firmware SBOMs, vulnerability management and CRA compliance.
Automotive security suite pairing xAurient threat intelligence with in-vehicle detection, a vehicle SOC and SBOM-based vulnerability management.

An SBOM tool produces or reads a bill of materials. A product security platform keeps those SBOMs for every product and version, matches them against new vulnerabilities over time, and tracks remediation and compliance evidence. Most include SBOM generation, but it is one part of the job.
Yes. These platforms find known vulnerabilities in known components. They do not show how an attacker would chain weaknesses in your own code, hardware or configuration, which is what a penetration test of the product is for.
Mainly the EU Cyber Resilience Act, UN R155 and ISO/SAE 21434 for vehicles, FDA cybersecurity requirements for medical devices, and IEC 62443 for industrial equipment. Each platform supports a different mix, so check which ones it maps to before you choose.
