Green Hills Software to Showcase Secure Guest
Operating System Virtualization on Platform for Secure Networking at Interop
INTEROP 2009 LAS VEGAS, SANTA BARBARA, CA—May 14, 2009 — Green
Hills Software, Inc., the world leader in certified safe and secure real-time
operating systems (RTOS), will be holding private demonstrations of its
secure guest OS virtualization architecture in combination with the Green
Hills GateD® Layer 3 routing and Layer 2 switching software.
Secure Virtualization Architecture (SVA)
Green Hills Software's processor-independent approach to system virtualization
enables a complete guest operating system and its applications' ecosystem
to securely and seamlessly coexist with the performance, reliability-critical,
and real-time portions of the networking devices — all on a single
general purpose microprocessor. System availability is increased by
eliminating non-critical application failures or corruption in the
guest operating system by compromising the critical real-time packet
traffic for applications and services running on the INTEGRITY® RTOS.
INTEGRITY, the world's first Common Criteria EAL6+ certified operating
system technology, assures high availability and secure isolation between
networking subsystems. The INTEGRITY advanced security architecture prevents
denial-of-service attacks while guaranteeing optimal real-time performance
for packet processing applications.
Demonstration Information:
When: |
Tuesday and Wednesday (May 19-20, 2009)
9a.m. – 5p.m. PDT |
Where: |
Mandalay Bay Hotel – Las Vegas, NV |
What: |
Secure Virtualization Demonstration |
Synopsis: |
Green Hills Software will demonstrate the application of its Platform
for Secure Networking on a standard reference design — the
Fulcrum Microsystems "Vegas" 48-port 1-Gigabit Ethernet
switch chip reference system. The Vegas reference platform consists
of the Green Hills Platform for Secure Networking, including
INTEGRITY, secure guest OS virtualization, GHNet™ IPv4/v6
routing stack, and GateD® — the industry's
benchmark solution for commercial-grade routing and switching
software. Using Green Hills Software's secure virtualization
architecture, a standard Linux operating system will execute
on the Freescale MPC8548 general purpose processor of the Fulcrum
reference platform, providing system management functionality
and other services. Green Hills Software's INTEGRITY RTOS provides
the secure isolation of the Linux environment from the real-time
routing and packet processing functions, which execute as native
INTEGRITY applications on the same general purpose processor.
In addition, the ultra-fast interprocess communications (IPC)
of the INTEGRITY RTOS enable the Linux and INTEGRITY applications
to rapidly exchange management information. |
