SANTA BARBARA and FREMONT, CA —November 10, 2008 — Green
Hills Software, Inc., the technology leader in device software optimization
(DSO) and real-time operating systems (RTOS),
and TeamF1, Inc., the preeminent supplier of OEM-ready secure connectivity
solutions for embedded systems, today announced that TeamF1’s AuthAgent
family of authentication protocol products is fully integrated and now
available for use with Green Hills Software’s INTEGRITY® real-time
operating system. This integration provides developers with secure authentication
options that reduce development and production cost while improving time-to-market.
"We are excited to partner with Green Hills Software and make our
products available on its popular INTEGRITY RTOS," said Mukesh Lulla,
president, TeamF1. "This partnership enables our mutual customers
to develop smart and secure embedded devices, using our drop-in authentication
and network security software modules, on a reliable and secure operating
system."
"As electronic and mobile products continue their inexorable transformation
from standalone devices to powerful connected constituents of home, enterprise,
and global networks, developers require systems software that can guarantee
secure information flows," commented David Kleidermacher, chief
technology officer, Green Hills Software. "TeamF1’s authentication
protocols enable users of INTEGRITY-based devices to gain secure access
to networked services."
About AuthAgent
TeamF1’s AuthAgent family of products is a set of lean-footprint,
modular authentication protocol implementations that can be used either
standalone or easily glue in to various network and system security protocols.
The family includes:
- AuthAgent Kerberos: an embedded implementation of the Kerberos V
authentication protocol that is interoperable with Unix® Kerberos
Key Distribution Centers (KDCs) and Microsoft® Active
Directory Services.
- AuthAgent RADIUS: an embedded implementation of the Remote Authentication
Dial-In User Service that interoperates with standard RADIUS servers.
RADIUS, originally intended for dial-in use, is now the de-facto standard
for remote authentication in both new and legacy applications.
- AuthAgent TACACS+: an embedded implementation of the Cisco TACACS+
protocol as specified in TACACS+ RFC draft (draft-grant-tacacs). It
implements the client side of a mechanism to carry authentication and
authorization information between a network service granting privileges
and a shared server that has the centralized user and node information
required to decide whether such privileges should be granted.
About INTEGRITY
INTEGRITY is a secure, royalty-free real-time operating system intended
for use in embedded systems that require maximum reliability. Without

designed from the ground up for unprecedented levels of reliability,
availability, and security for a broad range of applications, including
mobile devices, avionics, industrial control, automotive electronics,
networking gear, and medical devices. The INTEGRITY RTOS’ strict
adherence to provable resource requirements allows an embedded system
designer to guarantee resource availability. Unlike other memory protected
operating systems, INTEGRITY does not sacrifice real-time performance
for security and protection. It is first and foremost a true hard real-time
operating system. INTEGRITY represents the most advanced RTOS technology
on the market today.
