Key security technology, LynxSecure, is also highlighted in the latest Forrester Tech Radar IoT Security Report 2017

San Francisco, California, 13th February 2017 – Lynx Software Technologies, with its world leading separation kernel hypervisor will be exhibiting IT and IoT security solutions for the 7th consecutive year at the RSA Conference in San Francisco from February 13th – 16th 2017 (Booth 618, South Hall).

This year, Lynx will be showing the latest version of the LynxSecure Separation Kernel Hypervisor in a number of real-world security demonstrations. They show how LynxSecure provides corporate / private domain isolation on a single endpoint device, with the corporate domain connected to a secure IoT Gateway also protected by LynxSecure. This IoT gateway will isolate the Operational Technology (OT) network from the Information Technology (IT) network and protects the data as it flows between the domains and systems by using separate encryption domains, and by enforcing strict uni-directional data communication.

Lynx is also demonstrating its partnership with Webroot, and Ad-sol Nissin, a key security partner in Japan, by showing a LynxSecure-based closed network security solution that accesses the Webroot cloud-based real-time file reputation service its own secure domain, checking files as they enter the system, and giving a real-time reputation analysis, before passing to the user domain.

Lynx was also highlighted in the Forrester Tech Radar IoT Security Report 2017, showing how its unique foundational security technology can be used in multiple sectors and use cases.

Lynx is also highlighting a key partnership with Curtiss Wright, to support rugged military and avionics systems where the highest levels of security are required. Lynx and Curtiss-Wright have pre-validated LynxSecure support on some of their key small form factor and single board computers. Lynx will display one of those systems on their booth at RSA, a Curtiss-Wright DuraCOR 80-41 tactical mission computer subsystem.
