Lynx Partners with Google Cloud to Support Google Anthros Bare Metal and Google Visual Inspection AI Service
 

The Lynx MOSA.ic platform now supports deployment of Google Anthos bare metal at the mission critical edge, enabling secure delivery of containerized software services from the cloud, such as Google Cloud Visual Inspection AI service, providing a validated solution for secure, video-based quality inspection.

This technology brings immutable isolation and non-bypassable security to give plant or facility managers confidence the solution meets the OT security requirements.

LYNX MOSA.ic for Avionics v03-white

A SIMPLER PATH
TO MULTICORE CERTIFICATION

Build, certify, and deploy your next mission critical avionics system as a mixed-criticality, heterogeneous design. Leverage hardware virtualization to isolate applications from each other, deliver deterministic real-time performance and reduce your certification cost, while meeting your interoperability requirements such as FACE™, POSIX®, and ARINC 653. 

THE PRODUCT


The costliest and most time consuming challenge when building safety critical avionics systems is the arduous process of certification. By reducing the number of complex software abstraction layers between your applications and chosen hardware, this burden is minimized and the resulting system is safer and more secure.

ROBUST SOLUTIONS
FOR THE MISSION
CRITICAL EDGE

Choose from open source, 3rd party, Lynx proprietary, and other operating systems to rapidly build mission critical edge platforms that are securely and safely connected to the Cloud. Incorporate bare metal environments to isolate critical functions and raise the immunity of systems to cyberattack.

Merging IT and OT networks in demanding industrial environments – where robots will increasingly be working closely alongside humans – can introduce substantial challenges of guaranteeing real-time (less than 1 millisecond) performance while maintaining security.

SEPARATION
AT THE LEVEL
OF SILICON

LynxSafe is the only endpoint security solution that provably separates protected enclaves from user domains — down to the level of silicon — rendering detection and monitoring solutions superfluous. It is immune to the most advanced threats, such as Meltdown, and precludes the need for patching by making it impossible for breaches to execute or for users to bypass security via USB, disabled VPN, email, etc.

THE PRODUCT

Traditional operating systems such as Windows, MacOS or Linux/Android that run on endpoints are vulnerable to cyber-attacks, and security updates and anti-virus software cannot be relied on to protect the endpoint. Traditional IT endpoint security solutions rely on either patching the endpoint OS or anti-virus applications that run on the endpoint OS.

TESTIMONIALS
We are excited that both NXP and Arm architectures are now supported within the LYNX MOSA.ic framework. It offers an exceptional technology for managing the complexity associated with multicores, reducing the design and certification time for safety critical systems based on NXP Layerscape and QorIQ SoCs.

Senior Principal Engineer, Chairman for Multicore for Avionics Working Group
LYNX MOSA.ic helps reduce the cost and time investment for customers developing, certifying and deploying innovative platforms.
Willard Tu | Xilinx
Senior Director, Automotive
As we continue advancing cutting-edge technology applications for factory automation, we are excited to partner with Lynx to accelerate a new, secure IIoT-based quality system for the market.
Riccardo Sesini
Digital Transformation Manager, Bosch VHIT
With many suppliers focused on the security of these systems, Lynx appears to be one of the few worrying about high reliability of platforms over 10+ year product lifecycles.
Chris Rommel | VDC Research
Executive Vice President
The inclusion of FreeRTOS as a guest of the LynxSecure separation kernel hypervisor will give developers an easy and low cost path to development and integration of complex systems, with a path to a fully safety-certifiable solution.
