Secure virtualisation for 64-bit processors

24 February 2016 Design Automation

Green Hills Software announced the availability of its safe and secure Integrity Multivisor virtualisation solution for 64-bit ARM and 64-bit Intel architectures.

Based on the Integrity real-time operating system, Multivisor delivers a real-time, fast-boot platform for safely and securely combining consumer operating systems such as Linux, QNX, Android or Windows with safety- and security-critical software on next-generation 64-bit multicore processors. It combines a trusted microkernel with multicore system virtualisation for configurable software partitions, real-time and safety-critical processing and hosting of one or more guest operating systems.

Taking advantage of hardware acceleration built in to the ARM v8-A architecture and Intel Virtualisation Technologies (VT-x and VT-d), this new Multivisor version extends the Integrity platform’s established 32-bit presence into the 64-bit sphere, bringing powerful new capabilities to designers of embedded devices including automotive cockpits, medical devices, industrial electronics, aircraft mission computers or government-sensitive dual-persona mobile devices.
