Industrial cybersecurity is on every CISO’s mind as manufacturers strive to integrate their IT and OT operations to drive efficiency and productivity. However, with increased connectivity comes heightened risk. This means that securing devices, networks, and systems is a critical challenge. Canonical, the publisher of Ubuntu, recognizes this need and we are committed to advancing […]
With automation spanning virtually every sector of society, real-time capable operating systems (OS) are becoming critical across industries, from automotive and telecommunications, to industrial manufacturing. A real-time operating system (RTOS) ensures precise and deterministic responses, meeting strict timing requirements essential for safety and performance. But is a traditional RTOS, like Zephyr or FreeRTOS, the right […]
