In the BufferZone virtual environment the real time system operators can install and run any program from any source without ever affecting the embedded PC control systems configuration.
Mission Critical Systems
Today’s embedded systems increasingly use standard PCs with standard operating systems and a hard disk, because of scalability, ease of R&D and TCP/IP connectivity. Yet, these advantages have brought with them a new danger: Mission-Critical Systems are now vulnerable to intrusion by viruses and other forms of malicious code, and even misuse by authorized people and vulnerable programs. The stability of the Embedded PC control system is unprotected and there is no guarantee against the introduction of unauthorized software and spyware.
“We've looked for a security solution under very strict requirements: it
should be a preventive security solution – rather than a detection
mechanism, it should have minimal overhead that will not impair the
systems' performance, it should be a standalone solution – independent
of other computers, servers or the Internet and it should be
independent of the security patches that are installed in the operating
system. Trustware's BufferZone is the only product that we have found
relevant that provides all of the above.”
