Lynx Honored by 2022 Military + Aerospace Electronics Innovators Awards
As a Platinum honoree, LYNX MOSA.ic for Avionics was recognized as a superb innovation characterized by a groundbreaking approach to meeting a need and/or a new level of performance, efficiency, ease of use or other beneficial quality.
Lynx Software Technologies Receives Strategic Investment from OceanSound Partners
The Industry's First Commercial Unikernel with POSIX Compatibility
Utilizing LYNX MOSA.ic’s software framework for building and integrating complex multi-core safety- or security-critical systems, Lynx has based its Unikernel product on its commercially proven LynxOS-178 real-time operating system, to enable compatibility between the Unikernel and the standalone LynxOS-178 product. This allows customers to freely transport applications between each environment and is FACE and POSIX API compatible.
LynxElement marks a major leap in the design of security and safety-critical systems by enabling high performance, reduced footprint and containerization of applications.
A controlled migration
toward better
Delivering a safe and secure system for 20+ years when market conditions cause changes to the immensely challenging supplier landscape!
Lynx has a 30 year pedigree in markets where products must remain viable for decades. We embrace your existing software (even if it is based on technology from our competitors) so you don't have to adjust things.
Allow us to assist you with a controlled migration and share helpful information on new capabilities that best suit your needs.
A Simpler Path to Multi-core 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 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.
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.
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.
