Green Hills Software Joins Trusted Computing Group
(Market Wire Via Thomson Dialog NewsEdge) SANTA BARBARA, CA, October 29 / MARKET WIRE/ --
Green Hills Software, Inc., the
technology leader in device software optimization (DSO) and real-time
operating systems (RTOS), has joined the Trusted Computing Group (TCG) to
develop the next generation of open standards and technology for secure
computing. Green Hills Software will contribute its security expertise to
the support and development of information assurance technologies that will
protect critical information and assets.
"We are pleased to have a leading secure operating system vendor as part of
the industry influencers supporting the TCG," said Brian Berger, Trusted
Computing Group marketing work group chairman. "Green Hills Software's
participation in evolving TCG standards will provide valuable expertise in
the secure operating system and virtualization area and will help
proliferate our open approach to PC security."
"The open standards developed by TCG have been widely adopted in
commercial, off-the-shelf computing platforms, operating systems, and
applications," commented David Kleidermacher, chief technology officer,
Green Hills Software. "Green Hills Software's information assurance
technologies, including INTEGRITY PC(TM), take a central role in securing
computer systems based on the open architecture standards developed by TCG
for trusted network and IT environments."
About INTEGRITY PC Technology
Green Hills Software's INTEGRITY PC is a software platform designed for the
military, intelligence, financial, medical, and other critical
infrastructure communities where PC users must manage and protect
high-value information. INTEGRITY PC is based on the safety and
security-certified INTEGRITY real-time operating system and incorporates a
suite of secure software components, including Green Hills Software's
award-winning Padded Cell(TM) virtualization software. Padded Cell enables
multiple guest operating systems -- such as Windows, Linux, and Solaris --
and their applications to be run in secure partitions on the same computer.
The resulting platform enables systems designers to build the most
security-critical applications and run them alongside familiar operating
environments, saving cost, size, weight, and power over multiple hardware
platforms.
INTEGRITY PC takes advantage of the latest hardware security features,
including the TCG-compliant features found in Intel vPro Processor
technology that aid in secure attestation and hardware-based cryptographic
controls.
About the Trusted Computing Group
The Trusted Computing Group (TCG) is a not-for-profit organization formed
to develop, define, and promote open standards for hardware-enabled trusted
computing and security technologies, including hardware building blocks and
software interfaces, across multiple platforms, peripherals, and devices.
TCG specifications will enable more secure computing environments without
compromising functional integrity, privacy, or individual rights. The
primary goal is to help users protect their information assets (data,
passwords, keys, etc.) from compromise due to external software attack and
physical theft.
