Germany’s BSI guns for better tech security – Computerworld


The argument is growing

Apple’s success in creating platforms developers can use while eradicating kernel access shows that it’s possible to create a secure platform without leaving the very heart of that platform exposed. The powerful cybersecurity regulator thinks so, too. 

Not only does BSI want Microsoft to take urgent steps to secure its platforms (which it should have done years ago), but it also wants security firms such as CrowdStrike to redesign their tools to make such access unnecessary.

CrowdStrike, however, has argued that products like firmware analysis or device control “would not be possible” without it. The regulator doesn’t agree, telling the WSJ that it is, “positive that robust technical solutions which also respect EU regulation can be found for the problem at hand.”
