Summary:
SHOREBREAK, developed by RAM Laboratories, a San Diego–based R&D firm specializing in advanced cybersecurity and AI-driven software analysis, is an enterprise-grade Dynamic Vulnerability Intelligence (DVI) platform that redefines software security at the binary level.

In today’s threat landscape, the race to find zero-day vulnerabilities isn’t academic—it’s survival. The organization that discovers them first controls the narrative; the one that doesn’t becomes the target.

Unlike static or source code analysis tools, SHOREBREAK performs AI-powered dynamic binary analysis directly on compiled executables—no source code required—delivering zero false positives and real-time detection of exploitable vulnerabilities, including zero-days.

As modern software ecosystems increasingly rely on third-party and legacy binaries with limited visibility, SHOREBREAK fills a critical gap by exposing hidden risks before adversaries can weaponize them. During this IEEE demonstration, we will showcase SHOREBREAK’s live binary execution analysis, revealing how its adaptive AI engine identifies, prioritizes, and traces runtime vulnerabilities back to specific code locations—illustrating how organizations can shift security left, secure their software supply chains, and outpace adversaries through continuous, automated binary-level protection.
