Ensuring embedded hardware in the field is secure and
up to date
KontronOS guarantees that embedded hardware devices in the field are secure and up to date — over the entire product life cycle.
The specifications for embedded devices with an existing IoT connection go far beyond security updates in the field. Regardless of whether it’s about software reliability and modifiability, atomic updates or low data consumption: With KontronOS, we deliver an industrial IoT-to-cloud operating system based on Linux that meets all these requirements.
KontronOS creates the space you need to focus on your core competencies: The fully automatic update function guarantees that the system is continuously up to date and secure — without having to intervene.
KontronOS has several possible levels of integration that enable smooth interaction between the operating system and the application software. This includes containerization of the software as well as creating separate partitions for customer applications and for integrating specific runtimes in smaller systems.
Digital security for integrated computers
Digital security is of enormous importance for integrated computers: The growing number of autonomous devices without an operator gives companies significant threat exposure. Different user groups have different needs and security requirements.
With KontronOS, we provide a custom-built operating system based on Linux that is geared to the specific requirements of your software and hardware. The automated update process ensures that the system is always up to date. Especially for large numbers of devices, we guarantee that all devices in the field are on the same update level despite different schedules and threat scenarios.
Managed service for secure, custom-built hardware configurations
By providing KontronOS as a managed service, we make it possible to cover a variety of hardware configurations for a wide range of requirements. Various key properties can be configured using a customizable web interface with the aim of minimizing service times. Automated pen tests provide the required security.
In the event of zero-day exploits, weak points or threats, the system quickly updates itself. To avoid downtime in the event of any problems, you can switch back to the last operational version at any time. This means that KontronOS enables you to create a custom-built security platform for your company's business cases.
