SourceT micro OS

Genuinely secure micro operating system for mission-critical server applications

SourceT is a micro operating system designed from the ground up to take full advantage of the unique security and performance features of the Itanium 2® microprocessor. By leveraging these hardware features, SourceT creates an operating environment that makes mission-critical applications immune to compromise from rootkits and malware, and resistant to network attacks.

By completely authenticating the firmware, micro OS and application code during the boot process, compartmentalizing and protecting code and data at runtime, and designing network protections directly into the micro OS, it creates an environment that fully protects itself and applications executing on it.

In addition, the SourceT micro OS incorporates a streamlined I/O communication stack, and a high speed cryptography library that greatly accelerate network and cryptographic performance.

Applications running on SourceT software are:

Higher performing

Applications can achieve orders of magnitude improvements in performance over other operating systems and hardware.

Immune to rootkits and malware

Fully authenticated boot process uses digital signatures to validate the authenticity of firmware and software. A secured runtime environment eliminates paths for injection or execution of foreign code.

Protected from network attacks

This self-protecting system detects and mitigates extremely high volume denial of service and other flood attacks while allowing applications to continue to serve legitimate requests.

Able to safely store secrets

Highly sensitive information like cryptography keys can be maintained safely online.

Scalable for long-term growth

The SourceT micro OS was designed to scale nearly linearly to multiple CPU, multiple core architectures.
