Synopsys Cybersecurity Research Center

Cybersecurity Research Center (CyRC)

The Synopsys Cybersecurity Research Center works to accelerate access to information around the identification, severity, exploitation, mitigation, and defense against software vulnerabilities. Operating within the greater Synopsys mission of making the software that powers our lives safer and of the highest quality, CyRC helps increase awareness of issues by publishing research supporting strong cybersecurity practices.

CyRC leverages core expertise present within the global software security teams within Synopsys. Our expertise spans static code analysis, fuzzing, penetration testing, open source development, and production deployment. With software at the heart of modern life—from wearable devices, home automation, blockchain, mobile applications, and automotive technologies—access to actionable security information must flow at the pace of innovation.
