Security as a Core Competency of the QNX Neutrino Microkernel

Attacks, hacks, worms, viruses... Software is becoming increasingly vulnerable to a myriad of threats. No matter how secure the perimeter around your systems, malicious attacks can and will break through. How do you ensure containment, if not continued operation, despite a system breach? Today's interconnected embedded systems require that secure operation be designed in from the ground up—via a secure OS. In this white paper, security expert Eugen Bacic explores the tenets of software security and explains how QNX Neutrino provides an environment that is secure, stable, and reliable.
