FOUNTAIN HILLS, Ariz., January 11, 2011 — OpenSystems Media (OSM), LLC today announced its upcoming E-cast, Developing Security-Critical Applications for Multi-Level Secure (MLS) Platforms. In the aerospace and defense industry there is a growing demand to support high levels of security (Common Criteria EAL4 through EAL7) on critical systems while reducing Size, Weight, and Power (SWaP). To address this demand, now there are Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) operating system foundations that enable both Single Level Secure (SLS) and MLS solutions that speed time-to-market and enable the support of multiple security domains on a single silicon platform.
One of the most challenging components of these solutions is the development of secure applications in these platforms. Now there is an open standard, formally defined computer programming language, SPARK designed to support this critical software development process and meet certification requirements of high-security software used in applications and systems where predictable and highly reliable operation is essential. Executive-level personnel, program managers, safety and security architects, engineers, and designers are invited to participate in the E-cast covering the latest developments of securing MLS platforms from industry-leading experts.
The webinar will unveil the power of high-integrity languages and COTS solutions that enable the creation of robust, high-security application software for critical systems.
AdaCore and Wind River will be available for a Q&A session immediately following the E-cast.
