Green Hills Software to Present and Exhibit at
Embedded Systems Conference Silicon Valley 2009
SANTA BARBARA, CA—March 24, 2009 — Green Hills Software,
Inc., the world leader in certified safe and secure
real-time operating systems (RTOS), will participate in a variety
of activities next week at the Embedded Systems Conference in San Jose,
California. At booth #822, Green Hills Software will demonstrate its
latest embedded software solutions.
Green Hills Software speakers will present:
| PHASE: Defense
Against the Dark Arts |
| When: |
Tuesday (March 31, 2009) 8:00am — 9:15am |
| Where: |
San Jose Convention Center, room A8 – Aerospace
and Military track |
| Who: |
David Kleidermacher, Chief Technology Officer, Green
Hills Software |
| Synopsis: |
This session introduces PHASE: Principles of High
Assurance Software Engineering, a practical methodology that developers
can apply to create software that is far more robust than most commercial
software. PHASE has been used in systems that have passed the highest
level for aviation safety certification (DO-178B), the highest level
for industrial safety certification (IEC-16508), and the highest
level of security certification (Common Criteria - ISO/IEC 15408). |
| Anatomy of an EAL7
Security Certification |
| When: |
Wednesday (April 1, 2009) 1:45pm — 2:45pm |
| Where: |
San Jose Convention Center, ESC Theater – Security
track |
| Who: |
David Kleidermacher, Chief Technology Officer, Green
Hills Software |
| Synopsis: |
A real-time operating system (RTOS) was recently certified
to the highest Common Criteria (ISO/IEC 15408) security level ever
achieved for an operating system. This session will discuss the standard
security specification, including its key functional and assurance
requirements, against which the certification was performed, and
how this standard compares to other security specifications prevalent
in commercial software. The EAL7 process and methodologies will be
instructional (and hopefully inspirational) for developers who want
to design for a higher level of security and reliability. |
| Improving Security
with MISRA C and MISRA C++ |
| When: |
Wednesday (April 1, 2009) 8:00am - 9:15am |
| Where: |
San Jose Convention Center, room A7 – Security
track |
| Who: |
Greg Davis, Director of Engineering, Compilers, Green
Hills Software |
| Synopsis: |
C and C++ are powerful programming languages, but
they permit programming practices that may compromise the security
and robustness of your code. MISRA C and C++ are a collection of
rules and development guidelines that define a subset of the C and
C++ programming languages that are simpler, easier to understand,
and, most importantly, more reliable. This session will provide an
introduction to MISRA C and C++ and how to selectively apply them
to maximize the security of your code. |
Green Hills Software will offer, in booth #822, a wide range of interesting
presentations and demonstrations, including:
- Platform for Secure Networking – a comprehensive platform
based on the certified secure INTEGRITY® RTOS and consisting of,
secure virtualization, advanced file systems, dual TCP/IP v4/v6 host
and routing stack, web server, SSH, SSL, IPSec, wireless communications
and security software, Layer 3 routing and management software, USB,
and development tools that enable developers to create secure, powerful,
high-throughput connected devices with maximum availability in the
least time and at the lowest cost. This Platform will be demonstrated
on a Fulcrum Microsystems “Vegas” reference platform.
- Platform for Medical Devices – incorporates the safety-certified
INTEGRITY® real-time operating system, a broad range of middleware
including communications protocols and graphics, as well as an integrated
tool suite that addresses software developers' needs throughout the
medical device software development process. INTEGRITY is available
with complete software lifecycle data and supporting evidence for use
during the FDA approval process, and has been used in Class II and
Class III devices. This platform will be demonstrated on the Texas
Instruments Zoom™ OMAP35x development kit.
- The Wi-Fi reference platform incorporates low power 802.11 a/b/g
connectivity along with the latest Wi-Fi security protocols approved
by the Wi-Fi Alliance. Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA and WPA2) will be
demonstrated on the Atmel AT91SAM9263 development platform with the
Atheros AR6001 radio module. Additional protocol support for this platform
includes Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) and Cisco Compatible Extensions
(CCX).
- INTEGRITY PC™ will be demonstrated on a Dell E6500 laptop
showcasing Green Hills Software’s secure virtualization technology.
This platform is able to host multiple guest operating systems while
maintaining proven separation and security, and simultaneously hosting
real-time-critical, safety-critical, and security-critical native INTEGRITY
applications.
- A representative from Software Acceleration, a division of Green
Hills Software, will be available to discuss the company’s proven
methodology for optimizing software performance that significantly
increases performance for products based on 32-bit or 64-bit microprocessors
and compiled software languages such as C or C++. Software Acceleration
is the only company that provides its customers a contractual guarantee
that states, if the agreed upon software performance objectives are
not met, the customer will not pay.
- Representatives from Green Hills Software and RADVISION will be
available to discuss the benefits derived from the integration of the
RADVISION SIP protocol development suite with the Green Hills Platform
for Secure Networking. The combination secures confidential content
from malicious attacks and unwanted access by relying on the industry’s
most trusted real-time operating system, INTEGRITY, and supports the
security policies and foundational architecture to prevent the wide
range of attacks inherent to IP-based services while guaranteeing the
required service quality.
