NetRise for Telecom Enterprises: Solution Brief on Software Supply Chain Security

Gain visibility into the software running on your telecom network, security infrastructure, OSS platforms, and core and edge systems. Learn how NetRise helps telecom enterprises manage risk in the software they buy, use, and operate by looking beyond SBOMs into the compiled code that actually executes.

The Challenge

Why Telecom Enterprises Need NetRise:

question-mark-icon

Do the component versions in the software build actually match those in your manifest?

These gaps persist because

icon-checklist

Static testing and SCA don’t always reflect what’s actually compiled and built.

NetRise delivers the visibility and context needed to build, certify, and ship secure telecom software and devices.

Why You Need a Comprehensive SBOM

Software today is more assembled than written. Research shows that as much as 80% of today’s software is comprised of third-party components. A single application can include proprietary code, open-source libraries, config files, operating systems, credentials, and more.

The Solution

Software Supply Chain Security for Telecom OEMs

NetRise gives telecom OEMs complete visibility into the software you build—across devices, applications, and vendors—so you can uncover hidden risk, strengthen regulatory defensibility, and make faster, more informed security decisions. Unlike legacy tools limited to source-code analysis, NetRise analyzes the software that actually executes in your products, providing the clarity to prioritize action and reduce exposure.

Who Uses NetRise in Telecom Enterprises?

  • Security & Network Operations

    Track exposure across core, edge, and OSS systems; locate affected devices quickly when new vulnerabilities emerge.

  • Vendor & Third-Party Risk

    Inspect inbound hardware and software without relying on delayed vendor disclosures; go beyond questionnaires and risk ratings.

  • GRC & Compliance

    Generate audit-ready evidence aligned with telecom cybersecurity mandates and global software supply chain standards.

  • Architecture & Platform Owners

    Validate that compiled builds match intended manifests and haven’t introduced unexpected components or regressions.

Platform Overview

  • logo-star

    Binary Composition Analysis

    No source required. Analyze firmware, containers, and packaged applications to see what actually executes on critical devices.

  • Software Composition Transparency

    Build accurate, binary-derived SBOMs that include misconfigurations, credentials, certificates, and scripts.

  • Exploit-Aware Prioritization & Reachability Insights

    Enrich vulnerabilities with exploit data, privileges, and autorun analysis to focus on real-world risk.

  • Kernel Vulnerability Auto-Remediation

    Eliminate kernel noise with automated validation and VEX-compliant evidence, so teams can focus on exploitable issues.

  • Seamless Integrations

    Automate workflows across ticketing, SIEM, compliance, and asset management via robust APIs.

Key Takeaways from the Brief

  • logo-star

    Your SBOM Doesn’t Tell the Whole Story

    Understand why manifest-based SBOMs and vendor questionnaires leave you blind to risks buried in containers, configuration files, and compiled binaries.

  • Verification Before Trust

    See how NetRise creates binary-derived software inventories across networking gear, security appliances, OSS platforms, and CPE—so you can validate vendor claims instead of relying on self-attestation.

  • Runtime-Aware Risk Prioritization

    Learn how exploitability, reachability, and autorun analysis help you focus on vulnerabilities that are actually reachable and exploitable, not just listed in an SBOM or CVE feed.

  • Non-CVE Risk You Can’t Ignore

    Discover how NetRise surfaces misconfigurations, exposed keys, credentials, and licensing risk—critical for telecom environments that underpin national infrastructure.

Core Benefits for Telecom Enterprises

Challenge

Telecom teams lack clear visibility into the software running across core, edge, and OSS infrastructure.

How NetRise Helps

Establish real-time visibility into software assets across core, edge, and OSS platforms.

Challenge

Vendor SBOMs and attestations often reflect intended components, not what is actually compiled into software.

How NetRise Helps

Verify vendor SBOMs and attestations against what’s actually in compiled software.

Challenge

When new vulnerabilities emerge, teams struggle to quickly determine where affected components exist.

How NetRise Helps

Locate, prioritize, and remediate risk quickly when new vulnerabilities emerge.

Challenge

Patches and updates may not fully resolve vulnerabilities—or may introduce new risk—without validation.

How NetRise Helps

Validate that patches truly address risk and that updates don’t introduce new flaws.

Challenge

Complex telecom environments create uncertainty about what software is truly deployed in critical infrastructure.

How NetRise Helps

Move from software uncertainty to software control in critical telecom infrastructure.
