Universal Robots A/S does not care about cybersecurity as we have witnessed in the past (Akerbeltz, industrial robot ransomware in Article Industrial robot ransomware: Akerbeltz
). Motivated by this attitude, Alias Robotics is launching an initiative to empower security researchers, but also end-users, distributors and system integrators of Universal Robots' technology with the information they so much require to make use of this technology securely. We are announcing the week of Universal Robots bugs. During the following days, our team will dedicate resources to file openly security flaws and receive the researchers input on bugs they might have found. Have you got any security flaws that you are aware?Read more in our article down below.

Closed the week with 86 bugs reported and catalogued in The Robot Vulnerability Database (RVD):

Thanks to all of the independent researchers that participated. We hope these actions improve the security status of robotics. This is a critical to ensure the industry's trustworthiness.

I saw your paper and the database
The question that I have for you and your team is:Are you going to expand on a security framework for robotics?
Will you be interested in collaboration?
Regards
Dear Arturo,
Thanks for the comment.
As for the db, you're pointing to: Preprint Introducing the Robot Vulnerability Database (RVD)
As per you question, are you aware of RSF (Robot Security Framework) we published back in 2018 with the University of Twente? Preprint Introducing the Robot Security Framework (RSF), a standardiz...
Of course, we look forward on collaboration on that.
Best regards,
